FreeBSD5.4 Intel SRCS16 Raid5 Problem

[Tim Timrawi]

Hello, 

I'm running a Tyan 2882 with Dual Opteron 244 an Intel SRCS16 PCI-X with Raid5 
configuration of 5 x 200GB Western Digital SATA 7.2KRPM. I installed system 
via CD it detected the Raid fine and identified the correct space allocation. 
Once it reached the installation part the install bursted to 2000KB/s than 
started going low to 50KB/s. Once system was installed I started having 
problems saving to a file. 

It appears to be having problems with the I/O to the device any ideas whats 
going on? 

Thanks
