We have two identical systems - 64 bit - 2 x Dual Opterons, 8Gb Ram running Novell/SUSE SLES10. Both systems are showing the problem. In our case the RAID controller is 3ware Escalade 9550SX - 8LP And the HDD are: Maxtor MaxLine III (7V250F0) 250GB SATA II The symptoms here are almost exactly as you describe. A disc "drops out" once every week or two and the only way to clear the problem is a power cycle - or remove and replace the HDD (our system is hot-swap).
