Ingo, could you elaborate on this ?

Are all versions of the RAID driver except for the newest one considered
buggy, in case of disk failure ?

What's the problem ?  Are all known problems fixed now ?

I'm sort of wondering, because I've had a lot of luck with older versions,
and would hate to upgrade all the boxes if it's not necessary   :)

Thanks,
