Finally got Windows to install on IDE160 - After I'd removed the SATA drives, I had reconnected the IDE drive with a shitty power cable chained through all of my system fans, which drop a pin here and there. Hooking that up to a main cable seems to work fine, so I'm beginning to think that the SATA drives were just two bad OEMs.

Can anyone recommend me some software that I don't need a disk or OS to run that will run a full surface scan of a hard disk? When I get the new ones in I'd rather test them immediately rather than have to install another copy of Windows first.
