I had the very same behavior on a RAIDI set on an Areca controller (but no software RAID or VMWare). Scary. I believe if you have the WD drives, it could also be a hardware issue... look: http://www.theinquirer.net/default.aspx?article=37188 http://support.wdc.com/download/index.asp?cxml=n&pid=15&swid=57 Affects 500GB drives. In that particular situation, dmesg said: EXT3-fs error gone raid volume device dm-0 error reading directory Then the / volume remounted itself RO while also reporting 100% usage..
I think I might be safe from the WD drive problem, my drives appear to be hitachi desktstars (model HDS725050KLA360). But isn't the Areca driver is different from the mpt one? So it would seem other drivers have the same problem as well.
