Can you say about more about this, Jim? This may also be my problem, or
part of it, as my drives too are mounted in such a way as not to be in
physical contact with the case. How did you go about grounding them? I
suppose one test would be just to remove the washers....
That said, in my case, 2.6.24 seems to make a big difference, too. I
accidentally booted into 2.6.23 today and, boom.
