I've seen the filesystem corruption with ext3 & xfs
and RAID1 (md) as well. However, I don't seem to
be able to get that far nowadays, as the machine
is being used as NFS-server and thefore there is
always "too much" disk-transfers going on and an
IDE-system hang happens quite soon after boot.
(it seems that my raid-disks get out of sync every time
I switch from proprietary driver --> kernel driver
and so it might be the raid resync that hangs the system).

Yep, but it cannot be strictly via-chipset issue
as I have verified that the same problem exists
with Epox 4PCA3+ motherboard, which is P4 & Intel 875P
based.
