The machines giving problems are almost identical when it comes to hardware specs : Intel SE7520BD2 mainbord (SE7520 chipset) Dual Intel Xeon 2.8 Ghz (other machine : Dual Xeon 3.2 Ghz) 4 GB PC3200 ECC (400 Mhz) Corsair (other machine : 2GB PC3200 ECC) > Does your RAID adapter's firmware version work on 1.42? > Areca firmware had fix some hardware bugs and rare sg length handle in this > version. It's currently at 1.41. I'll see if I can upgrade it to 1.42. For now, I've put all available stacktraces when it hung on http://www.jdi-ict.nl/areca, together with a lspci -v -v and a copy of the kernel's .config Please let me know if you need anything else.
