RE: Dell2650/Perc 3Di: another victim

The machine we have that still experiences this issue
is running a raid mirror for the boot disk and a RAID 10
volume for user data.

The RAID 10 volume is the only one that has ever hung.
The mirror stays active.

Just thought i'd mention that if there is any correlation.

Our other servers that do not have issues, (while under lighter load)
are all RAID5.

Although possible this appears to fail quite regularly.  We used to do
the same here: 2 x disks in mirror and the other 3 x disks as volumes.
Under load the machine would get the SCSI hang problem seen by other
folks.  After switching to 3 x disk into RAID5 haven't had the problem
(but performance is awful).
