One problem is that there is no longer a "cause" to find.
All 5 drives are running fine now.
I just have to remember not to plug a SATA drive into the #4 SATA port
and there shouldn't be any more problems.

This use to by my son's board a Bio-Star N4SLI A9.
He ran it for a couple of months and got rid of it cause
it was giving him all kinds of problems. Mouse, keyboard,
LAN ports and USB ports would just stop working and then start
working again at odd times.

I have been running it for over two months now and this is the first 
problem I seen.

BTW my case is big enough that I have 1" space between 3 of the drives and
2" between the other two.

Just installed a AC Freezer 64 Pro cpu fan with the PWM Fan Control.
Had to turn off the Smart Fan Control. Scares me to look over and see
all the case fans and the cpu fan not turning.

With the Smart control the cpu was running at 42c at 986 rpm

Without the Smart it is at 39c at 2300 rpm And I can't hear it running.

www.geeks.com had them on sale at $16 so I got 2.

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
