As to the details: No idea. This is just what I found by comparing
the older megaraid driver (which worked, but is unsupported) and the
newer megaraid_mbox driver.
The noticeable difference was just the random deletion feature.
As I don't have any details about the driver I certainly can't
tell you any details. This is a workaround.
But as Dell (or LSI, for that matter) refuse to update the
BIOS on these drivers we're stuck with it.

Cheers,

Hannes
