    Ok, a little update here... I was lucky to be able to RMA the disks to the dealer (although they were more than an year old) and just pay the difference to some new 2TB Hitachi drives. So now everything is up and running normal with good performance! :) Never more WD (at least not...

    Problem with RAID setup

    I have a RAID-5 array that consists of five 1.5TB disks (WD15EADS). The controller is Areca ARC-1220 and TLER is activated on all disks. Sometimes the array works just fine and I get descent speed in both read/write but quite often there is serious problem with performance, both on...
