I have an issue with some of my hard drives in my computer. About once an hour, some of my hard drives will just power down and then spin back up. While they spin back up, my computer will freeze for about five seconds until they get powered back up. I am running 7 hard drives with an Abit IC7 motherboard, Intel 2.4C Ghz processor, 2 gigs of ram, Windows Vista Ultimate, 6 case fans, on a Thermaltake 420 Watt power supply.
I am wondering if this would be caused by a bad power supply or maybe I am using too small of a power supply. I am thinking about going to a 500 watt power supply. Any comments would be greatly apreciated.
