Ok, someone with more experience has to help me out on this one... So the options it could be are-
1. Bad Controller
2. Bad SATA Cable
3. Bad Driver
4. Bad HDD
I have checked the SATA cables, swapped them around with known working ones (they worked on the HDD above it w/o errors)
Which ones should I check next? This is on my 320GB 7200.10.

heh, maybe a bad SATA port, but will let it be for a while to see if the error pops up again. It seems to be just intermittent from the get-go... so who knows. So far after 5m no errors of that kind in EvntVwr.

Benchmark Scores I dont have time for that.
while your at it try and run it through an HDTune bench. and check the smart data... the test will hopefully (or maybe not) force a reacurance if the controller is bad and SMART should tell you if its a bad drive. it might not be the mobo at all though. it might be the controller on the HDD logic board itself.
