So far so good - the new drive is in, partitioned, formatted and is now getting all the data from the old drive, and -- no hangs in hours.
The outgoing drive is an IBM Deskstar 60GB - not considered the most reliable of drives. It has a manufacture date of Jun 2001 so it has seen enough duty and can be retired. That N-bridge fan, Pie, is a pet peeve of mine in motherboard designs. I can't believe manufacturers decided the best way to handle that problem was to put a dinky, weak fan right where all the dust in the system will flow and clog it up. This MB has a heat sink there, much better idea. |
