I had similar Problems on 2 occasions:
1) A (at the time) new PE2650 with Hyperthreading enabled.
2)Yesterday on self build Machine with a PERC5/i and an old (5.0.xx )
firmwarepackage. Upgrading the firmwarepackage to 5.2.1-0067 seems to
eliminate the issue so far.

My firmware versions  (checked with MegaCli):

FW Package Build: 5.2.1-0067
