    When did this start happening? Have you done a recent fimware update? Have you tried uninstalling the drive then reinstalling? How old is your drive? More info please =)

    What do you have your drive set as? Master/Slave? Check your IDE cables and jumper settings, might want to try installing the drive the other way. Hopefully that helps, it could also be a hardware problem meaning you have a bum drive =(
