I've read the best way to 'deal' with this issue is to turn off apic/acpi etc, is there any downside to turning them off? Particularly APIC for IRQ routing?

It's not the best way to deal with it, more just a workaround, and if it does help it should be reported because it indicates something else is wrong. The main downsides to disabling APIC is that all interrupts will be handled by one core and you'll end up with much more IRQ sharing. Disabling ACPI on modern systems tends to be a bad idea, you'll get no multi-core support, for one.


This happens on drives on both the Intel 965 chipset motherboard ports and PCI-e x1 cards, and the cables are not the issue (the cables with 12 other 150 raptors have no issues) (same cables I used with them)).

With NCQ on or OFF it occurs.

$ cat runtest.sh
#!/bin/bash

for i in `seq 0 20`
do
  cd $i
  tar xf ../linux-2.6.25.10.tar &
  cd ..
done

With NCQ off (earlier) (from just heavy I/O on the raid5):

What is the true cause of this, is there anyway to get more information?

I will test soon with apic/acpi=off.

Can you post your dmesg from bootup with the controller/drive detection?
