Update: After some more days of running Fedora 14 those disk timeouts has started to appear. After a search on the net about similar NCQ problems I added this to /etc/rc.local yesterday, and so far I haven't seen any disk timeouts since then: for D in sd{b,c,d,e,f,g} ; do echo 1 > /sys/block/$D/device/queue_depth done Eventually I wish to install CentOS 6 and hopefully I will not have the same problem as with CentOS 5.5. In the mean time I will make a try with Scientific Linux 6 alpha or RHEL 6 beta2 and see what happens.
