Stalling
I've had this drive for about two months ( was backordered for about two months ... ) and I was pretty content with it up until now.
The first benchmarks were good, actually they still are.
When I first got the drive I was in a slow period where I didn't do loads of work so the issue may have been there but I simply hadn't noticed.
The hard drive seems to stall at times. This makes the whole machine freeze up for a split second and everything goes back to normal. The workload isn't crazy either on the cpu ...
any suggestions?
This is driving me insane, especially because now I can't work on Logic pro, frequently stops in mid sessions saying cpu or hd overload. This may be coinciding with the upgrade of the software (from 8.0 to 8.0.2 ) and could also just be software related(it's an ongoing issue with Logic pro with apple has been denying for the longest time but which I had not experienced up until just recently).
After verification I cannot work reliably with this hard drive when I need constant data output on logic pro. I will hear a faint clicking sound from the drive and right afterwards I will get a cpu/hd overload warning which stops everything in Logic pro.
Various things and issues, but basically the drive stalls....
What to do???
machine specs:
MBP Santa Rosa 2.2 C2D
4 gigs
and the 7200.4
