I am running preclear on 5 hard drives, they are all the same, and all plugged into sata ports on the motherboard. 4 of them are sda-sdd but the fifth one is hda and when running the preclear is going about half the speed. Does anyone know why?

I figure nothing to worry about but figured I would ask the experts. I got these off ebay used and real cheap. So here are the terminal outputs from four drives. Attached are the Smart Reports.

I am looking for a replacement for the COOLER MASTER Centurion 590 Case. It seems to have been removed from Newegg, and is no longer on Amazon. I love this case (besides those metal tabs) and would hate it if I cant find it. I have found these: Thermaltake V6 BlacX Edition Gaming Chassis Mid Tower Steel Computer Case BlacX Top Mounted HDD Docking Station VM100M1W2Z http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811133180 Thermaltake V5 Black Edition Mid-Tower Gaming Chassis With Embedded Handle VL70001W2Z http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811133099 but was wondering if anyone has found a good 9 spot case that can hold 3 5-bay hot swaps

Just finished me very long preclear of a 2tb Green EADS WD. I did 3 others befor this and they only took half the time, so I think something is up.

I am in the process of preclearing 5 disks, 3 2tb WD Greens, 1 2tb WD Black, and one 1tb old WD. 4 of them have fished but one of the Greens is still running the first read.
