Hey guys, It looks like you're right, it's working perfectly every time now.
I did the original testing on my own XP SP3 workstation, but I've just gone and repeated the test on a whole bunch of machines (SP2 and SP3), and it worked fine on all of them, and also now works fine on the original workstation. I have been doing a lot of testing on this pool (disconnecting iscsi drives and working in degraded mode to test recovery), which has been causing a few CIFS errors as things timeout. I'll see if I can get it to reproduce this problem.
