I think I've had this problem with a similar supermicro system. 
The solution for me was to turn off the onboard ide raid controller. 

I see SCSI in those server specs. If you are using all SCSI try disabeling
all the ata and sata in the bios. Also, try turning off raid features of the
SCSI if you can (If you need to, you can always fall back to gmirror or
something).

Update: Whoever fixes this KEEPS the test server.  Here's a $1000+
server with 1GB RAM for fixing what could be a simple bug.  Any
takers?
