Hi Guys,

My brother has apparently been having the same problem on his computer. I hadn't realized it when I submitted my bug. For him, he has an ICH8 family of chipsets.

The following works for him, and the problem goes away.
echo anticipatory > /sys/block/sda/queue/scheduler

Looks like this may be a tough one to nail down, because everyone's symptoms are slightly different. I'm wondering if perhaps there are multiple issues going on here.
