Thanks for your feedback! It'd be appreciated if you can inform the version of running kernel and version of upgraded firmware. This may be helpful to those having the same hardware.

I've finally decomissioned the server, so i've get some time (and courage ;) to upgrade controller firmware to latest version (2.84) and do some test (server was off network, but with service online and with clamscan running on a loop continuously). Machine survive with wheezy kernel for a week, so seems to me that firmware upgrade (and/or wheezy kernel upgrades ;) cure the trouble. Probably the server will be trashed, anyway...
