Bug Description

Just installed known good Mushkin 1TB SSD as the new boot disk. Install failed. It is possible that this might be caused by a failed SATA cable, because my previous boot disk, a 300 GB Enterprise Raptor got a bunch of CRC errors, and became unbootable. I'm going to replace the SATA cable now

Yes; it does appear to be a bad SATA cable.
