[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1688668"] They probably won't. Those reports go into a large database of such things and when a sufficient mass of them build up they use that data to prioritize and analyze what to do about the reports. But they probably (almost certainly) won't respond to you on them directly. Your problem was not in the OS, but is in the fact that your drives were starved for power. Do you really need 20 USB connections? And are all of those hubs powered? You may also want to look at the power demands you are placing on those hubs and compare it to what they can handle. If you are driving them near the limits, then when the drives need extra to spin up, move the heads, etc., they may not be getting enough power. [/QUOTE]
