So specs first
Tekram P5T30
K6-3 400 6X66
RIVA TNT 16MB
Sound Blaster 128pci
Intel Pro 100s nic
PSU 350w seasonic no bad caps and voltages measured
3.3v @ 3.37 5v @ 4.91 12v @ 12.14
Seems in spec to me, running into an at to atx adapter
Now the problem in the last 4 days I've had drives die
Quantum 40gb
Seagate 40gb
Seagate 40gb
Maxtor 20gb
Western digital 40gb
Western digital 120gb
Western digital 80gb sata using a kingwin sata to use
Anyone have any ideas, I've changed the cables, and the failure is always the same in a few hours the drives start reving and stopping like they are trying to work, but they no longer read or are detected. Tested in a via ide card on my windows 10 system and they are dead.
Steps tried
New 80pin cables
New power supply happily powering my XP 3200 rig to test that
Checked for bad caps none all check out visually
Tried with a promise ultra tx2 133 for the final drive and it still occured
