Are the oracle backups being issue from an agent such as RMAN?
I know in the past the number of simultaneous backup streams are

This was all set up in the RMAN scripts to stream 4 sessions at a time.

No it's just set to 900 still.
We could increase that, but if it's the CLIENT_READ_TIMEOUT why is that

I'm guessing this is the case that because this is an IDS monitoring box
the directories and files on that volume are constantly in use. I
suppose then the raw backup will never work?
