I have just bought a Western Digital SATA150 Raptor, 10,000 rpm, 8MB cache. It really doesn't want to do anything at all. I bought it a brand new HighPoint controller instead of the onboard and it still doesn't want to do anything.

My first problem with WD, but I expect problems with most HDD manufacturers at some point.
