Yep, Vista and Win7 are both very hardrive intensive compared to XP.
Better pony up the dough and get a solid state drive with the "barefoot"
controller. LOL

I've noticed this 'problem' on both Vista and Win7. It seems like the
system puts it's file manager to sleep, so that if you try to do a
disk action, you get a substantial delay. For instance, I'll be
playing a game, then I jump to email, when I try to drag and drop,
there is a delay, I get the circle, then finally it moves the
message. Of course, the next message goes quickly. The same with
getting disk directories. I'll click on a drive, get the 1st half of
folders, then the circle and then the moving bar, then it finally
gives me all the folders. Of course, after that point, everything
works quickly. My power settings are for always on, so it's not a
power down. Anyone else seen this?
Thanks....Steve
