I am currently having an issue with an internal Seagate Barricuda via eSata.
Playback is really choppy, this is the second 1 TB drive in two weeks to do the same thing.
Western Digital 1 TB with 16 mb cache
Seagate Barricuda 1 TB with 32 mb cache.
Both via eSata, both going to onboard eSata connection as they will not be read via the PCIex card on the motherboard.
500 GB Seagate Barricuda that I replaced works just fine, take out the 1 TB and put the 500- GB back and all is good.
I can capture to the drive fine, no dropped frames, I can copy the files over to the other Seagate Barricuda 500 GB Drive and playback fine.
Playback of any and all video files on the new 1 TB drives is slow and or choppy….
If anyone else is having issues with this, please let me know.
