Bios freezes the second i start my ext. Drive and unfreezes sometimes when i turn it off. Also it does not boot if it is plugged in and turned on before startup. When shutting down with the USB3 HDD on i got a blue screen a few times randomly.
The Case is a Icy Dock Blizzard.
specs:
Intel 4670K i5 3,4ghz
7950 boost
8 GB Gskill sniper 1866mhz
Installed the newest intel driver directly from intel since they are not on WIndows update or Asus support site.

ps.
Are there any known Ext HDD drives that function properly with the Maximus VI Hero ? Best if there is SMART support as well for the BIOS itself. The Blizzard only shows it SMART data to speedfan... Also the Case should have functional Standby for the HDD, i like it more silent and energy efficient.
