is this so you can do failover between the two ? or so you can use a
single PV220S as storage for each server ?

ok, that's definitely not 'normal' behaviour. you should probably be
seeing more like 10-25Mbyte/sec writes on raid5 with the perc3/dc and
reads in the order of 30-60Mbyte/sec. (conservative figures)
are these servers in production already ? could you test whether the
storage in non cluster mode still behaves like this ? how about if
one of the servers is disconnected ?
i can't offer advice on the other questions - perhaps a dell person
can say something there. it may even be a hardware problem...
