the only thing wrong with the bigfoot is its caching algorithm. In short it no good for runtime video or audio. This could effect midi playback and some long video clips. Check the jumper settings on the drives and check the cmos settings as well. Are the drives using LBA mode? You could try setting the drive up as a secondary slave, maybe that would have an effect.
