More than ever, I am convinced that it is actually a hardware problem, but I am curious for the opinions of both of you on whether the "system" (meaning, I guess, the combination of usb-storage driver and raid) is really doing the best with what it has. My last effort was to switch to a different

Just tried in on a stock Ubuntu Edgy install. Same thing. Locks on read. I've got a dmesg (w/stack trace) file from the ubuntu attempt (it was clean prior to doing the read) which I will send to Alan and Neil (any anyone else who asks for it). There were no error messages in dmesg prior to running

As I suspected, majordomo doesn't like attachments. I looked through the logs. The only odd thing I see before the read that hangs is this message: smartd[3069]: Device: /dev/hda, 1 Currently unreadable (pending) sectors Which I only see in /var/log/messages because the stack dump blows whatever

I'll try playing around with IO sizes with dd. What I'm finding so far is ABSOLUTE consistency on where it locks. If it were a race condition with kernel locks I guess I would expect it to be more indeterminate (in my limited experience) unless it is due to specific "deadly embrace" condition betw
