Hallo,

after replacing one of the controllers, all problems seem to have
disappeared. Thank you very much for your advice!

There is an UDMA_CRC_Error_Count of 17 and 20 for the two disks with
checksum errors. The other disks have values between 0 and 5.

And yes, there have been timeouts some time ago. Since the problem did
occur without the timeout occuring again, I considered the timeouts to
be unrelated. And then I forgot them. :(


But shouldn't timeouts either produce correct data after a retry or
a read/write error otherwise?
