Just a shot in the dark : are your drives of the "green" kind ? Such as
Western Digital Caviar Green ?
Exactly.
I disabled the idle timer though.
Also since they are ATA drives make sure you are using 80pins ribbons
and that DMA is properly activated in BIOS.
They are SATA drives.
You can also try to reduce DMA level, it must be on UDMA5 by default,
try using UDMA 4 (aka UDMA/66) or UDMA 3.
Does this apply to SATA?
How would I do that?
