The machine is running with ULE on 7.0 as mention using an Areca 1220
controller over 8 disks in RAID 6 + Hotspare.
I'd suggest you first try to reproduce the stall without ULE, while
keeping all other parameters exactly the same.
Ok tried with an updated 7 world / kernel as of this afternoon and with 4BSD
instead of ULE and no difference the machine still locks up with no activity
for anywhere from 20 to 30 seconds.
Here's a snapshot from top under cpu and io modes when the stall has occured
