Hej,
I am using Suse 9.1 and have build (finally) my Raid-5 volume using the
raidtools.
When I write large amounts of data to the array (i.e. 50 GB) in a cp or mv
operation, it always stops in the middle of the copy. It waits. There are no
kernel messages, no errors, it just waits.
The strange part is that after I do a "more /proc/mdstat" my cp/mv operation
continues.
Performance is descent with approx. 20-30MB/s writes and 80MB/s reads.
You can see the rest of my setup in a previous post:

Has anybody seen this before?

P.S. I am using two Maxtor 200GB IDE disks and two identical disks but with
SATA interface. My box is a Dell 400SC and I run Suse 9.1 with the default
kernel.
I have the same problem.

I had a very similar problem (posted here:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/raid/msg05320.html).
After trying loads of combinations/configurations, I'm back to SuSE 8.2,
which works flawless.
I don't know what causes the problem, but I would be glad to know...
