I have a pair of RAID5s with these Seagate drives; I have flashed the firmware on the affected drives to the latest 0006 rev (they are 15k RPM drives). I *do not* have a problem with aacraid under vanilla 2.4.x and the included aacraid driver. The machine using these drives in a RAID5 with an Adaptec controller has had uptimes of 4 months (or longer) without any problems. I *do* have a problem (check the archives for the error messages) with 2.6.9 and the included aacraid driver. -- Phil Brutsche phil@brutsche.us
