Can anybody still experiencing this problem test the following possible solution?

The slow down as a result of the PATA/SATA combination may be causing at least some of the above mentioned problems.
This will probably only affect those with Intel chipsets.

Another possible cause maybe an optical drive firmware bug. People may want to check to see if they have the latest firmware for their optical drive.

I don't think this is a k3b bug but will wait to hear back from people before re-assigning.
