  1. From what I know the "core" FW for all the SF drives is the same. Based on the contracts they have, some manufacturers might get some features or limitations ( which is why some SF drives were / are limited to 10k IOPS for example ). Many manufacturers seem to have their own HW design for the drives, but as far as I know they all had similar stability problems which were fixed with FW updates. Considering this, I think it's pretty unlikely ( but not impossible ) to solve your issue by getting a SF drive from another manufacturer. If a newer IRST doesn't help you, try disabling power management features from your BIOS and / or Windows and see if that help you ( after doing the changes please run WEI - windows experience index). If nothing works, you can try a RMA ( the link is on the left ).
  2. IRST = Intel Rapid Storage Technology .. basically Intel's drivers for it's SATA chipset(s). Try installing the latest version which is 10.6.[xxxx]. I did use a F120 on a ICH9 motherboard ( albeit desktop and not notebook ) and I didn't encounter any problems. I don't think that getting another SandForce driven drive from a different manufacturer would really help you here. If you don't have the latest IRST, pleasy try that first. If that doesn't help, please try reinstalling the OS from scratch and see if you still have problems.
  3. You can try a new BIOS for the motherboard, a different port, different SATA cable, newer IRST. The model that you have is a Corsair Force ( with the 1st generation SandForce controller ). In order to receive better help please fill in your system details.
