Hi,
I have this cheap SATA addon card with an ULI chipset.
A have a linear raid over 3 disks one PATA, hda and two SATAs, sda and sdb.
When copying data to the raid device I get log messages like the following:

All references I found to this kind of message where related to some
driver issue and not hardware problems. Can this be the case?
Some extra info on my system:
