Subject: SATA command timeouts

Hi,
I hooked up new SATA disks to a machine yesterday and set up a software raid.
After copying roughly 25 GB of data onto the array all attached drives
reported command timeouts and wouldn't recover. Only a reboot would help.
I tried the same again, this time the drives would timeout after 60 GB of data
written. I exchanged the CPU, but the same thing occurs.
I'm currently in the process of testing the drives singly by writing 150GB of
data onto them and seeing if they will timeout singly (so far I had one
success and one complete system hang - even the CPU fan stopped spinning). My
next test will be doing write-heavy operations on all four drives
simulaneously, but without gathering them into a raid array.
Used hardware:
- 4 WD 400GB SATA RE2 drives
- Promise SATA300 TX4 controller
All of this was first running kernel 2.6.16.14, then after upgrading to
2.6.17.4.
dmesg output is attached.
Is there anything else I can test to debug this problem?
Regs,
Sven
