I have a raid5 with 3 disks in and have started so see some weired
problems.First I thought it was the disk since it was always the same but
after changing the disk I now have the same problems but another disk so
I'm starting to suspect a driver issue.

The only disk I have in the system is connected to this pci card and the
problem is always with the disk named sda regardless if it is connected
to the first sata port or the second and first is empty.
I have switch power cables and sata cables around but problem is not
moving from sda.

problem seen on kernel version vmlinuz-2.6.35,vmlinuz-2.6.33.3. was
running vmlinuz-2.6.28.7 for about a year before that without any problem.

Now it took about two month before sda got kicked out of the raid on
2.6.33.3 but 2.6.35 have not lasted more than a few days.

The controller's reporting errors on the SATA link. I would still tend to suspect some kind of hardware issue - maybe that port connector is bad on the card or something? I would be surprised if a driver fault could cause this to be reported spuriously.
