Ive had this drive since last Dec and its been rock solid in my gaming rig (i7 on Win7 Ultimate x64) . Ive only had one computer freeze during in that time and that was in "sleep mode" only (all other sleep mode times have been fine) , keep in mind Iam still on the older R201 firmware (and have yet to getting around to to updating it).
