Returned my new Maxter DiamondMax 40.9Gig, 'coz I had a serious problem. In Win2000Pro as well as in Linux (though Linux way less) my computer would some times lock up. As in: nothing happened anymore. Keyboard stuck, mouse stuck, everything stuck. And then I heard the HD do "click-click, click-click, click-click, click-click, click, click, click, click" and it would keep on clicking. So, was it broke or does anyone have any ideas what else it could've been?

Abit KT7A, AMD T-bird 1.333Ghz, 2x256Mb PC133, Plextor 12/10/32, SBLive, Diamond Viper V770.

btw, I know about the SBlive/KT7A problem, it wasn't that, took out the SBLive: same problem existed.
