Not certain if this was mentioned. While WDC WD20EARS drives can be used 
in an RAID array, WD recommends using there RAID capable drives in an 
enterprise environment.
I tried using same drives in a simple RAID-1 array and had serious 
performance issues (sync taking a week) and stalls when writing to disk. 
Are you using the stock firmware on these drives?
