When you setup the RAID5 array, what stripe size did you use ?  I found 
problems with anything other than the default 64K.  What BIOS rev are you 
using?  The only RAID 5 setup I use is on a 7810. 3dm2 shows
Model 7810
   Serial Number F11402A2120284
   Firmware FE7X 1.05.00.056
   BIOS BE7X 1.08.00.046
   Monitor ME7X 1.01.00.038


It stores pgp encrypted files that we check once a week to make sure they 
are OK and I have yet to find any issues.
