I've been having no end of issues with a 3ware 9650SE-24M8 in a server that's coming on a year old. I've got 24 WDC WD5001ABYS drives (500GB) hooked to it, running as a single RAID6 w/ a hot spare. These issues boil down to the card periodically throwing errors like the following:

Have other folks had good luck with this card? What sorts of configs are you running? I'm in the position of needing more storage, and I'm a bit gun shy on 3ware at the moment...



I have no experience with that raid card, most of our larger systems use external SAN storage, but I will say that, IMHO, is a very large raid-6. we usually don't make single raid sets much large than 7-8 drives, and for a very large storage system, will stripe multiple raid5/6 sets rather than have one huge one.
