    Alright, I have an Maxtor One Touch III 300 Gig external hard drive. When I transfer files to the drive it sometimes freezes. I have ran Flobo Bad Sector program to check for any bad sectors and it did not detect any. I have ran chkdsk and it still did not help. It will freeze until i turn off the hard drive. Then windows will act normal once again. Running a disk defrag freezes also. Downloading files directly to the drive will freeze the entire computer till the drive is turned off. I have no clue on how to fix this and Ive been trying for quite some time now so any help will be greatly appreciated. Please help! Thank you, IceCold
