    Sandy Bridge chipset recall :(

    "In some cases, the Serial-ATA (SATA) ports within the chipsets may degrade over time, potentially impacting the performance or functionality of SATA-linked devices such as hard disk drives and DVD-drives."

    There's a bit of confusion on this...this affects your motherboard P67 chipset, not your CPU.
