PC Freezes/Lock-ups with new Intel 510 SSD (120gb)

[Chococake]

Hello overclock community,

I have installed my new 120 Gb Intel SSD 510 series a few hours ago, and I've been experiencing some rather strange and annoying issues.

Random PC freezes (When I've got applications open and doing stuff) the PC just locks up and I cant do anything. Normally I have to reboot, last time it happened (5 minutes ago) the explorer rebooted itself, thank god.
Before that I wanted to instal WinRar on the SSD (Note that the clean windows installation is on the new SSD, and the old HDD still has most of its files), the file just appeared corrupted. No matter what I did files were corrupted...

Rebooted the PC and it somehow wanted to self-repair, which helped the corrupted files.

Still, no clue what the problem is. Anyone that could enlighten me with his/her knowledge?

I hope to hear from you soon.

EDIT:

My HDD just crashed.... Great.

run the hard drive diagnostic utility from the manufacturers site. also run chkdsk /r from the command window

could be that you have a dodgy drive.

What do you mean by "dodgy drive"?

Just ran the tests on both disks... Both passed.

I agree

Your PCIe bus wants to drop into low power and there is some problem with this and many disks.

You need to install the latest Intel and Marvel Raid drivers and make sure your firmware is up to date.
