Thanks both of you. Yes, I built this computer for video editing. I usually change out the drives often anyway. Now it gets to the point where I open my editing program, click a file and wait. Since I have different video stored on different HD's I have to wait until each HD spins up but sometimes the program says "Not responding" and closes. When all are spinning, the computer is fast as it wants to be. Guess I have to take the grit with the gravy, huh?
