3+ hours to burn! Sounds like your sony in in PIO mode.

Make sure your dms's are enabled. That litey controller may be in pio mode. Here's a link to show you how to check:

Double check your jumpers on your drives/connectors.

Did that new sony drive come with a new IDE ribbon?

Some of the newer drives come with a 40 pin/80 wire IDE ribbon which is recommended to use. The older ribbons are 40 wire and can slow you down..

What's your system specs and OS?

Tell us your configuration: Primary master/slave-cable select and Secondary Master/slave-maybe cable select. Some pcs will call for cable select instead of slave.
