I had a drive that appeared to work in Windows (there were no drive
error types of messages), but didn't in Linux (there were numerous error
messages from the first moment I tried Linux on it).  Replacing that
drive on the Windows box stop a variety of errors on Windows that could
never be pinned down to a specific cause.

I'm more inclined to believe that you wouldn't know about drive errors
on Windows, specifically.  Rather than a drive would actually not have
any errors with Windows, but did with Linux.

Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
I read messages from the public lists.
