Good day, Think its a hardware issue with a new drive, when going t the BIOS and selecting Auto, instead of this switching to User and displaying all the relevant information it remains on Auto and the column over in grey just says the capacity. Only thing visible and selectable is 32 bit mode. On reboot the BIOS halts with an error, command failure primary master on occasion. If I try to install, yast hangs for a long time and on one of the screens you can see bad blocks and dma timeouts being produced. Never seen this with a drive before and wanted to see if everyone thinks its a broken drive...First time I have ever had this. Many thanks, Matt
