I can replicate Freezing problem

Hi All,

Not sure how to get Intel to listen, but the freezing problem is caused by a read immediately followed by a write.

I wrote a rough and dirty program that Seeks to a random spot in an existing file, then writes to the same file in the next indexed spot. Crash! every time it locks up.

The index is the size of the buffer used to read/write. Using a 512 Byte Buffer, I Seek to random spot and read the BufferLen, then move the file pointer 512 (BufferLen) Bytes ahead and write the buffer back.

If I add at least a 10 millisecond delay between the read and write it all runs fine.

I tried differing BufferLen but it still crashes. The only thing that stops the freeze is inserting the delay. And, that delay needs to be about 8 to 10 mS minimum. Less than 8 it still freezes.

Hi Lun,

We've tried recreating your report of freezing with CrystalDiskMark but it runs OK for us.

If you are still having problems I suggest you contact Customer Support. You can find contact information at:
