Comment # 2 on bug 913152 from Alexander Th�rmer

I have to "pause" this bug report to state "needs more analysis" from my side,
and maybe withdraw it:

Seems the Western Digital "WDC WD2000FYYZ-01UL1B1" is a "diva", or more
technical, the HDD controller (or its firmware) does not work well with
controllers in SATA I and SATA II mode. 

A detailed description I found at amazon buyers reviews (its in German
language):

Also, after found out about a undocumented jumper setting, forcing the drive i
SATA II mode (currently it is setup as SATA I), I get worse freezes and hickups
with all OS on my PC (Windows, OS 11.4 and 13.1).

So almost sure this is a lack of compatibility with older SATA standards of the
drive.

I will open a call at Western Digital to confirm that and as soon above is
confirmed close this bug report. Sorry for any inconvenience!
