What type (make/model) of the drives?

The drives are 250GB  Hitachi Deskstar 7K250 series ATA-6 UDMA/100

True, the controller may not be able to do it either.

What types of disks/controllers again?

The RAID disks are currently connected to a Silicon Image PCI card are
configured as a software RAID 5

03:04.0 RAID bus controller: Silicon Image, Inc. SiI 3124 PCI-X Serial ATA Controller (rev 02)
       Subsystem: Silicon Image, Inc. Unknown device 7124
       Flags: bus master, stepping, 66MHz, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 16
       Memory at feafec00 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=128]
       Memory at feaf0000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=32K]
       I/O ports at bc00 [size=16]
       Expansion ROM at fea00000 [disabled] [size=512K]
       Capabilities: [64] Power Management version 2
       Capabilities: [40] PCI-X non-bridge device
       Capabilities: [54] Message Signalled Interrupts: 64bit+ Queue=0/0 Enable-


The problem originated  when the disks where connected to the on board
Silicon Image 3114 controller.

"The T7K250 also supports Native Command Queuing (NCQ)."

You need to enable AHCI in order to reap the benefits though.
