Have you got the latest firmware on your LSI 1068E HBA's? These have been known to have lockups/timeouts when used with SAS expanders (disk enclosures) with incompatible firmware revisions, and/or with older mpt drivers. The MD1220 is a 6Gbit/sec device. You may be better off with a matching HBA -- Dell has certainly told us the MD1200-series is not intended for use with the 3Gbit/sec HBA's. We're doing fine with the LSI SAS 9200-8e, for example, when connecting to Dell MD1200's with the 2TB "nearline SAS" disk drives. Last, are you sure it's memory-related? You might keep an eye on "arcstat.pl" output and see what the ARC sizes look like just prior to lockup. Also, maybe you can look up instructions on how to force a crash dump when the system hangs -- one of the experts around here could tell a lot from a crash dump file.
