Please wait, invoking sas configuration utility... then hangs

As per the topic, I have a dl160 G5, and I want to get into the SAs config utility. I just upgraded the firmware as per : http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareDescription.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodTypeId=329290&prodSeriesId=3716250&swItem=MTX-86ea6c7f49db4e82a0fb1b5dc8&prodNameId=3716251&swEnvOID=4004&swLang=13&taskId=135&mode=4&idx=0

(hot plug sata2 with lsi controller)

I did it to resolve slow writes on seagate AS 7200.10 drives, but I still can't get into the config utility. Is there something going on here?

Re: Please wait, invoking sas configuration utility... then hangs

I'm trying to get in there because, when I run

/sbin/hdparm -t /dev/md1 (or md0)

I get ~68MB/s on reads (don't know on writes).

This is on Sata2 Soft raid 1.

So,I'm stuck with slow reads/writes until I can get in there and try and change settings (which I don't know yet :) )
