hi,

It's 99% bad cache memory module on controller. You can put it directly into 
server memory bank 
and test it with memcheck. To repair you need to buy "ESG-X,DIMM, 256, 400M, 
32X72, 8, 240, ROMB" 
for cca. 55€. I have already repaired three PE1850s PERC 4e with the same 
symptoms as you wrote.
