I had purchased intel SSD 330 120 Gb.
At first I installed in my desktop (AMD Board), a lot of time the SSD fail to be detected with SMART error.
After that I had it installed in my notebook. It worked, but frequently the windows freezes, I have to reboot, and it's ok. After that the problems comes again and I have to reboot again.
I had the SSD removed, then installed to another desktop (intel), the same problem comes up. I had to reboot to resolve the freezes. I could not get into the Internet when the windows freezes.
THis is very frustrating, I could not get tow work with three different machine. I have another SSD (OCZ),which work with my desktop and notebook.
Can anybody assist me on this.
I had done fresh installations on all three machine.
Can I proceed with RMA?
Thanks.

Hi There,
Currently I'm working with a couple of Lenovo T530's and T430's ... all equiped with SSD.
I've noticed that most of them had major issues logging into windows 7 ( Freeze at welcome screen )
But after dissabling the Hyper W7 Service in MSCONFIG all these issue seem to be part of the past.
Maybe worth looking at.

Goodbye Intel. Tired of your freeze-ups.
Replacing you with a Crucial M4.

Goodbye Intel. Tired of the freeze-ups.
Updated chipset and raid drivers, did the registry tweaks and still have freeze-up problems.
Replacing my 330 with a Crucial M4.

Same problem like OP and everyone else in this thread : random freezes on a HP NX7400 laptop (ICH7M), fresh W7 x64 install, latest BIOS.
Disabling AHCI in BIOS solves the problem, but I lose TRIM and other nice feats it has.
Please Intel engineers, release firmware update.

While waiting for my Crucial M4 SSD to show up, on a hunch I turned off TRIM in Win7 using the command.
fsutil behavior set disabledeletenotify 1
You issue this in a command prompt that is running in administrative mode.
So far no freezeups. What made me try this is that when I use Intel's SSD Toolbox tool, when I run the SSD Optimizer (which I think is a way to manually force an immediate TRIM) I get the same symptoms - a steady HD led for 30-40 seconds and the SSD freezes up.
Still will swap the Intel drive out for the Crucial drive when it arrives but for now (knock on wood) no freezeups.
