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

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.
