I've had this issue since I've installed a fresh copy of Windows 7 to my new built about 6 months ago. My new built never ran any previous OS, so I am assuming that it's only happening with Windows 7. Anyway, my Windows 7 is running 3 Hard Drives, occasionally, the PC will lag, immediately followed by the sound of a Hard Drive powering on or off, the entire lag happens for a few seconds then it returns to normal, does anyone run into this issue running Windows 7?

It gets pretty annoying because it happens randomly, not according to what I do on my PC.

My specs are the following:

AMD X4 630 2.4GHz
4GB RAM RipJawz
1 x 640gb WD
1 x 250gb WD
1 x 250gb Samsung
Integrated Video

TIA!
