Greetings,
Any thoughts as to how to get around this - it's only been up for a few
days.
Rebooting my home router every 24 hours is not spouse endearing behavior :)

become really obvious once you start maxing out disks on an ahci controller
with a softraid array. they rarely present problems in normal use! but, the
SSD sata drive may evoke different behavior for some reason. i think
continuous runs of iogen over a RAID1 array might bring out similar issues all
by itself, even with regular hard disks

reproduce the problem then you would know quickly when a ported fix from their
driver has helped.
