All issues involve (atleast the only commanlity found) IHC9(R) on a
P35 chipset:

Drive type/speed mismatch (fixed at least in my case)
PATA/SATA mutually incompatible (fixed in my case at least)
SATA cd/dvd freeze on any r/w attempt (no progress)

Xi Lin fixed that a few days ago.. go back to the near the beginning
of the thread to see the patch

Beaware that not all P35 BIOS's have settings for AHCI (such as mine
only offers IDE or disable SATA)
