thank for your comments

I should say that this question maybe end up without any reasonable result,
the system is now work well , I have give up investigating this problem any more.
maybe the question is just cause by the RAID card crash.

Impossible. RAID5 requires at least three disks.



Wrong. RAID5 works fine with just two drives. Try it.

(I admit that there isn't a lot of point doing raid5 with two drives
as raid1 should provide identical functionality with better
performance, but it makes an interesting base-line for performances
tests on N-drive arrays).
