Ugh, Adaptec, not my favourite controller. Do you have arcconf
installed? You could to arcconf getconfig 1 (or whatever your
controller number is) to grab some information regarding your
controller and the HDDs connected to it.

arcconf getconfig 1

Command completed successfully.

Could this be because we do not use the hardware RAID features of
the controller?
 

Do you have /dev/sg? devices? If so, smartctl -a might work on them.

Yes, but using smartctl -a/-x on these devices gives the same output as
using it on the /dev/sd? devices. :(

Re the software RAID, I would double check the health of your HDDs
before attempting anything.

Ok, this makes sense.
