The first time I used a 3-Ware I had similar problems.
Switching out various hardware (motherboard, cpu, memory, etc) didn't
seem to have an effect.  Only after deleting the array and re-creating it
did it start to work.  I have since used a 3Ware card in 10 different
machines and have not had any problems.

So try deleting the array and re-creating it from scratch.

I worry about my child and the Internet all the time, even though she's
too young to have logged on yet. Here's what I worry about. I worry
that 10 or 15 years from now, she will come to me and say "Daddy, where
were you when they took freedom of the press away from the Internet?"

Unix IS user friendly... It's just selective about who its friends are.
System Administration - It's a dirty job, but somebody said I had to do it.
If you receive something that says 'Send this to everyone you know,
pretend you don't know me.
