I have a writeup of the 3ware+maxtor SATA mess we just got a refund on at: http://dcs.nac.uci.edu/~strombrg/3ware-maxtor-notes.html ...but in short, we never determined definitively if the hardware problems (there were software problems too) were due to the RAID controllers or the disks. The integrator we were working with was blaming the disks, but sometimes we'd get repeated failures with different disks in the same slot of a given RAID controller.
