    Asus A7N8X-E Deluxe
    Barton 2600+
    Maxtor 160g SATA
    WD 160g ATA-133

    i made 2 partitions on the SATA drive
    when i try to copy a 700mb movie from one partition to the other on the SATA drive, it takes about 3-4 minutes do to it.
    When i copy the same movie from a drive 2 the other it takes about 35 sec.
    It really bugs me. I thought the problem was the SATA hard drive and i changed it with an WD 160g SATA and i had the same results !!! :knock:
    When i 'enqueque' 2000 mp3 files in winamp on the ATA drive it takes about 20 sec, on the SATA drive it takes 3-4 minutes.
    does anyone have any ideea how can i fix this problem ?
    Might the problem be the SATA module on the Mobo ?
