Tested with RAID 10 instead of RAID 5, success !

RAID 10 arrays tested:  6xWD200GB and 8xWD200GB both worked
RAID 5 arrays tested: 6xWD200GB and 4xWD200GB both failed

Note: 3ware lists the WD 200GB disk as "Under Test". (ie they have not yet 
given it a "Compatible" rating) 

details of tests and the procedure to detect the failure etc at

I still have to try an officially approved drive.
