    Explorer hanging up

    Currently I have this problem when I open more the one explorer window to browse folders, it starts to freeze/hang, it gets slower as I open more folders across different hard drives that are connected to different HDD controllers, it can be a few seconds to about 10 seconds.

    If I only have one open, then it acts normal, there is no delay or anything, but more then one, it starts to give the timer pointer.

    I have 10 HDD's connected to three HDD controllers, these are 2 cards connected by PCI and PCI-E x1 and finally the onboard controller, nothing is raided.

    JMicron Technology JMB363 Controller - Asus P5K
    Marvell 88SE9123 SATA-600 Controller - 2 Port Lycom PE-115 SATA III
    Silicon Image Sil 3124 PCI-X to SATA Controller - Lycom ST-25 Raid5 SATA II

    Using Windows 7 64bit, fully updated.

    Is it possible the drives have gone to sleep and are just waking up when you want to go to a folder on that particular drive?

    Last time I checked, my power settings have them never go to sleep, but I will check and see! Thank you.
