Hi,


I'm using a corsair Force Series 3 60 GB SSD.The problem is it hangs quite frequently.Tried Secure erasing the ssd and installed win7 again,same problem persists.Please Help!

do you have another SATA cable to try? sometimes they go bad

Well, I'm unsure as to whether it can affect SSDs the same way, but I've seen HDDs hang when using Molex to SATA adapters, or in general, bad SATA (power) connectors [native from PSU].

Also, as paperwastage said, try another SATA (data) cable as well.
If neither of those options work [changing the data cable or trying another PSU], then I'd move on to diagnosing the motherboard.

I have the same problem... I've tried the second link fix and it's not worked for me... going to try it again the manual way editing the registry. Let me know how you get on.

Did it the manual way, which is worded a little confusingly ... will let you know in a few weeks how it goes. I also turned the power saving options to never on the hard drive.
