Hey guys I've been lurking here for a while but I can not seem to find any info on my issues.
I bought an agility3 drive and can not get windows to install properly on this drive. Every time you try to restart the OS it freezes at the windows load logo. I have RMA'd the drive twice now but have had the same issues with all three brand spankin new drives. I have tried to install it with the rst driver, with out the rst driver, in aich mode, you name it I've tried it. Even tried the C300 drive fixes but to no avail. It works fine with a mechanical drive.
Also my battery will not charge past 7% now. The power adapter is working perfectly as I am able to charge and use my other dell laptop.
Did I get a lemon here or are there fixes for these issues? I would really appreciate the help.

hmmm well i just purchased a agilty 3 120gb drive today and will be installing it tonight when i get home.....
this post is a little scary but ill let you know my findings tonight.
did you use the alienware restore dvd's or did you do a clean install with a retail windows 7 disc? -
I have used a Windows 7 ult retail, windows 7 enterprise, and the standard Alienware home basic. All giving the same issues, but I just read an article that there are some issues with the firm ware that could be affecting these drives. As a side note all the disk utilities ive used say the drive is running at 128C and that was on all three drives on multiple computers.
