Today I installed a new SSD as my C drive. Cloned everything from the old drive and everything is working fine, except for Cubase (5). When I load up and play any project that worked fine previously, I get intermittent dropouts of 1 or 2 seconds all the way through (every 15 seconds or so). It sounds/acts exactly like it's being muted and unmuted. No freezing, no cracks or pops, no ASIO spikes. Sounds like an annoying engineer is playing with the mute.
I tried the Latency Checker and it never goes above 470, doesn't change noticeably when the sound cuts out. I tried increasing the buffer size anyway, no change. Rebooted several times. It appears all the settings are the same as on the other drive. I hooked the old spinner C drive back up and the tracks played fine again, no problems at all. So I have to assume it has something to do with the new SSD drive, which doesn't really seem to make sense, since it's supposed to be 15 times faster than a spinner. Any ideas?? p.s. Cubase is installed on another hard drive, not either of the C drives. Sound is RME Fireface 800 with updated drivers, has always performed flawlessly.
