Don't know:
Here's the only relevant line I could find in /var/log/messages

The drives have been moved around since the last time I tried writing here.
Hmm. Somehow the mirrored filesystem from another box got broken. I
have both halves, and can mount both of them in degraded mode, but I
can't put them together. Doesn't matter, once I get the data salvaged,
I'll build a brand spanking new mirror.
Anyway at the moment I am successfully copying data from one half
the mirror to a sata drive connected to the motherboard.
It appears that the only thing that doesn't work is trying to copy a whole
filesystem or large directory to a drive on the port multiplier.
Sent somebody out to buy a sata to esata adapter cable,
so I should be able to try with a different controller later today.
