I wouldn't worry about calculations at this point. Everything you
described is pointing to bad hardware and not software tuning.

Try getting another identical 3ware card and swapping them. If it
produces the same problem, then try putting that card in another
box with a different motherboard to see if it works then.

Once the basic card is working then we can talk about getting the
maximum performance out of it.
