Public bug reported:

On Natty:
Linux name 2.6.38-14-generic #58-Ubuntu SMP Tue Mar 27 20:04:55 UTC 2012 x86_64 
x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Using two WD Caviar Black SATA3 (WD1002FAEX) drives raid 0 on a Marvell SATA 
RAID controller built into the Asus Rampage III.
Both drives have Native Command Queuing.

Drive is /dev/sdb1, formatted ext4.

Controller from lspci:
01:00.0 SATA controller [0106]: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88SE9123 PCIe 
SATA 6.0 Gb/s controller [1b4b:9123] (rev 11) (prog-if 01 [AHCI 1.0])

This issue may be related to or a duplicate of Bug #539467.  Though it
is a desktop machine, not a laptop.  So not power state changes caused
by power cable being plugged or unplugged.

I have seen references to a problem with NCQ, but I don't know if that is 
relevant here.
I have seen references to a problem with these drives in RAID configuration, 
but I don't know if that is relevant here.

Symptoms:
1.  Transferring > 200 GB of data.
2.  System freezes while drive light flashes once per 2 seconds
3a.  95 % of time:  after 10-20 seconds, system recovers.  (see attached syslog)
3b.  5 % of time:  system does not recover.  Drive light flickers with some 
activity (v. dim, though).  System can be reset with Ctrl-Alt-SysRq-B.

If system recovers, syslog contains attached file:  120418_syslog.txt
(will attach).
