Firon Posted September 15, 2008 Report Share Posted September 15, 2008 There's two possibilities.a) the drive really is busted, for the third time. your SATA controller is defective.If b, then you need to buy a PCI SATA card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firon Posted September 17, 2008 Report Share Posted September 17, 2008 Eh, RAM could possibly cause a CRC error, but usually it causes other problems... Use Memtest to check your RAM. http://www.memtest.org/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firon Posted September 19, 2008 Report Share Posted September 19, 2008 There's really no way to know except to try your drives on another system./ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
