It’s brand new, and the cables and everything have been checked and rechecked and swapped 3 times now. I’m running windows 7 and getting lost by googeling also here. 

Gonna use the disc for storage only, not running software from it. But with theese speeds I might just forget that also. 

Any ideas since I’m getting desperate, this is my first time I’ve moved away from Seagate also and it ain’t fun. :confused:

Try another sata port from another controler… if possible ? Can you connect your hdd using usb and see hoe it behaves? If this behavior continues go for exchange the Hdd
