The lockups with the adaptec cards are a standard feature. Newer drivers 
from the Dell site might work for you and make the issue lesser.

The lsi logic cards should not do that normally. you might try the newer 
megaraid2 driver which is not only faster but gives some useful /proc stats 
as well.
