No, if the drive works fine outside the QS, it is definitely not the drive. It most likely is the ATA bus inside your QS, very likely since you mentioned having problems with cable select. There's a SLIGHT chance it could be power problems, but that's not very likely. Try another drive inside the QS, see if it has the same problems.
