I had a few on-board Intel RST RAID 1's that would BSOD all day if I put any serious IOPS on them. The hard drives would check out fine every time in SMART or using diagnostic software on other computers. The chipset was P67, the only solution was to replace the motherboards.
Some early versions of the H67/P67 chipset had a well-known hardware bug in the 6Gbps ports. The 3Gbps ports were unaffected.

It is an AZUS P8Z77-V PRO, so it has the Z77 chipset. Bios and ME are the latest.
Also, the SanDisk SSD is not in the raid. I have two other regular WD drives that are in the raid 1, and they work just fine. The raid only gets confused and needs to verify if the OS crashes (like when the SSD messes up). I am not a big fan of the on-board Intel raid either, but it serves its purpose for what I can afford. Also, I wanted a raid that did not need drivers installed so it can be seen from alternative boot media / CD, and also works easily with Windows and Linux. Hence the choice of using the built in "fake" raid.
