You have been subscribed to a public bug: Silicon Image 3114 and 3124 seem to have data corruption at writing data (particularly with big files or when the writing concern lot of files). I used a PCI card with the Sil 3114 chip; when copying files and directories from a HDD to an other, data corruption appears and seems to be random in files. But every checks about the computer (RAM, HDD ...) have gone right. Don't know what happening really, but I supposed that the module which control the Sil 3114 (and so the Sil 3124, cause this module was written from the 3114's module) contain a bug. I've tried to enable the Sil 3114 module's option called "slow_down" which should solve some "problems", no difference with and without this option activated. The Sil 3124 module's doesn't have this option.
Drives connected to Sil3124 controller seems to be affected by data corruption when at least 2 process attempts to writing at the same drive (obviously not in the same directory nor the same file), against Sil3114 which the bug seems to appears anytime. I have already posted a question : https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/564067/file-corruption- between-2-hdd with more precisions about what have done until now. Now i use a PCI card based on the Sil 3124 controller, seems to have the same data corruption issue as the Sil 3114, but less pronounced (less often).
