I did have this problem with a Novell server using the same or similar controller, the Drives were new IBM 9.1GB U2W drives also. Seems there was a bad connection on one of the drives (cable loose, etc.) Reseated the cables and never had the problems again in the last 8 months. I dought it was a power sag in my case 'cause I had dual power supplies with power sharing.

thanks
