Excuse me but, how could you determine the version of megaraid driver in the 
precompiled kernel from RedHat? A "modinfo megaraid" doesn´t tell very much 
about it. Did you download the sources and search there?

I'm in a similar situation than you. I got a PowerEdge 1400SC, with a PERC3-DCL 
adapter, and hdparm returns a very low transfer ratio for Ultra160 disk in RAID 
1, so I'm trying to test a more recent version of megaraid driver, but I 
actually don´t know what is the version included in the latest precompiled 
kernel released from RedHat. I'm running RedHat 7.2, kernel 2.4.20-18.7.
