Hello I'm trying to get an array of drives to work with the following configuration: 7 SEAGATE 750GB ST3750640AS SATA300 16MB drives 2 4 drive hot swap SATA II Drive Bays 2 Silicon Image 3114 4 port SATA controllers w/ BIOS Ver 5.4.03 (not RAID BIOS) System: ASUS A7N8X with an AMD 2800+ and 1gb ram. a Debian Linux System with kernal 2.6.20.4 with the SATA_Sil driver compiled as a module. ------ Symptoms: The system finds all the drives and everything appears to work correctly, but when I partition and make a file system on the drive and then copy files to the drive some of the files become corrupted in the transfer process. I have eliminated the drives from the issue by setting them up on a different controller and testing them and they are fine. Any thoughts or recommendations? I have tried everything I can think of, I'm willing to test changes, anything to get this working reliably..
