This is a great site and it really helped me pick and choose components for my new computer. Tons of great threads and a lot of helpful info. I have one little hiccup in build, which is my flaky Esata.
I just built a new computer with these specs:
Gigabyte Z68MX-UD2H-B3
Intel Core i7 2600K
XFX 6870 1GB Dual Fan
8GB DDR3 1600Mhz Kingston Ram
I'm dual booting this computer with one hard drive booting Windows 7 and the other booting Mac OS X 10.7.2.
Overall, the system is as solid as a rock. It has not ever crashed or panicked on me. Generally, almost everything works expect ESATA which is flaky.
Let me explain, I can boot up the computer and turn on my ESATA HDD dock and it sees my 1TB WD Caviar Green SATA hard drive. It mounts it and I can use it. Unfortunately, it seems after a while of using the drive it somehow freezes it or unmounts it and Lion spits at me a Error message saying the drive was improperly ejected.
I'd love to use ESATA since the speed of it is great and I have a dock that only supports USB 2.0 and ESATA. I have installed all the possible drivers on Multibeast to get it working so far.
Thanks in advance for anyone that would be willing to help me.
