Robert,

Could you give us a little more meat to chew on?
"Kernel 2.4.19 with 3ware driver 7.5.2 from their web page", firmware ??
The driver has a version string like "1.02.00.025".
"PCI Parity Error" is more or less a mainboard error, or a barrier commit
error.  I see you are doing that favorite "jbod" thing with "md" has your
raid wrapper.  Best guess, who knows but more data is useful and required.

Cheers,
