sounds to me like
you either have a fujitsu or an ibm hard drive there, i have knackered 3 of each of those before warranty and patience wore out

i had
a fujitsu master & a WD slave. i'm not convinced the drive wasn't the culprit either, but there was other weird shit going on too. now i've the 40GB WD as master & an 80GB barracuda slave, and the fujitsu makes an attractive paperweight.
