TJ,

Update your RAID firmware. Looks like you're on the same level that others were when experiencing this problem.

From Dell's support site, it looks like this problem is fixed in version 2.8.0 Build 6092
----------------
-Background controller cache flush routine modified to flush smaller number of buffers during I/O without impacting RAID throughput. This change fixes driver timeout (manifesting as loss of drive access and filesystem errors like ext3_get_inode_loc errors) seen under certain Linux configurations.
---------------

You're on the version just prior to this. Note that there are several versions even newer at this point.
