I have the first year unibody 15" macbook pro.

With my WD Scorpio Black in with 10.6.2, I wouldn't be able to browse after 2 minutes of using the internet, but I could still ping. The machine also couldn't read my Apple diagnostic disk in the dvd rom. So I did a reformat and reinstall to see if it would fix it. Didn't work.

I then stuck in my original HD also loaded with 10.6.2 and everything was fine. It could read my diagnostic disk and it had no problems with the internet.

I have yet to stick back in the WD Scorpio Black drive to see if the problems re-occur when that drive is present.

I was just wondering if anyone has ever ran into this strange problem.
