Non-asynchronous HDD? (ICH8R)

Hi!

I have Snow Leo installed, specs like in the signature. I have latest apple updates installed.

 

Everything works great except one thing - when HDD is being used intensively whole system becomes very unresponsive (but only to the tasks that also require hdd access).

 

This is not normal "system is busy reading from hdd". This is "wtf is happening? Am I back on my 486 without HDD dma access?".

 

It looks almost like HDD access was not being done asynchronously. For instance - when I have World of Warcraft running and my character is travelling between zones, data is being read from hdd and the game becomes extremely choppy. I get freezes that last for seconds. Same thing with starcraft 2 - when a new level is loading I can forget about doing anything else on my hackintosh (even web browsing). It's not only games issue - same thing happens when few files are being downloaded through uTorrent, files are being copied, or anything involving hdd usage.

 

I don't know if I had this issue from the start or did it just happen recently because until now I never did anything hdd intensive. As far as I can remember I didn't change anything in my kexts recently. Did some experiments with power management but rolled everything back, I think. Previously, on my Leo, everything was working great.

 

CPU usage is not spiking when HDD is being used. iTunes is always playing in the background flawlessly...

 

Please help me with this issue because it is not allowing me to use my pc normally.

 

Here is my kextstat:
