So we've got the crap drives on the crap controllers ... would it make 
any difference if you put the Greens on the motherboard, and the Caviars 
on the Marvell? Caviars I believe are good quality drives that might 
take enough load off the Marvell to enable it to work sort-of okay ...

Oh - and replace the Greens pretty soon - I don't know how they compare 
against other drives quality-wise, but they are optimised in a raid 
anti-pattern.

Cheers,
Wol
