I've applied the patch, but I now get another error; this might not be rela=
ted=20
to raid5, however, I have tested the individual SATA disks without getting=

any errors. This only happens when combining them into a raid5 array (other=
=20
raid levels not tested).

this error happens after copying a few gigabytes of data into the volume an=
