corrupted data caused by rebuild raid6

[red]

after my vortex was randomly failing harddisks and random kernel panics i did throw it trough the window and got myself another areca

it is just unaccaptable that a enterprise class raid controller isnt supported anymore, its not even that old..

According to our vendor, this controller has an error in the paritiy algorithm. There is a none public newer firmware at Adaptec (they are aware of this problem, the vendor got this info from Adaptec) but this new firmware would not be compatible with our mainboard.

This would appear a difficult fix for adaptec. If at all.
Thanks for the info.

Is this something that those of us with adaptec controllers should be worried about? I have a 51645 controller on my dss box, and I have had zero issues with it so far that I am aware of...

the adaptec bug doesnt affect the 51645
