here's the output, I'm not exactly sure how to read it. How would I determine if the mobo is faulty?<br><br><br>root@serverv2:/home/chris# lspci -t <br>

There is of course the slight chance that you just got yourself a faulty mobo.<br>
try lspci and lspci -t , should give you some idea regarding the bus<br>
structure. But your raid should not fail unless there is a hardware issue,<br>
specially that you built the raid in the first place.<br>
