HP Embedded 6 Port SATA Controller with Embedded RAID
After more investigation I found that second drive was unable to
negotiate 3.0Gb/s speed and dropped to 1.5Gb/s.
[ 3.433967] ata1: SATA link up 3.0 Gbps (SStatus 123 SControl 300)
...
[ 4.518560] ata3: SATA link up 1.5 Gbps (SStatus 113 SControl 300)
That's another issue which triggered a question:
Will it make RAID more stable if I force both drives to be 1.5Gb/s? For
seagate drives it can be done by setting a jumper, no idea how it's
possible on WD.
