I updated the system BIOS to A11 release, backplane firmware to 5.51 and the Perc driver to
2.8.0.6076. I have also replace drive 3 with a new harddrive. This drive is part of Stripe Raid.

You mention BIOS upgrade, BackPlane firmware and PERC drivers (BTW, latest drivers version is v2.8.1.6085 A15), but what about PERC firmware (latest - v2.8.1.6098 A16), Adaptec's Controller Management Software version 2.8.6046 A13, and Management utility (FAST) for NT 4.0 and Windows 2000 - v 2.5.0.2988 A07 ?

I looked up the configuration on this system http://support.dell.com/support/topics/global.aspx/support/my_systems_info/en/details?c=us&l=en&s=gen&~tab=2
Your issue is known as a SCSI timeout, and is caused by noise on the SCSI bus, replace the cable and backplane. the original parts are not available (0036R cable, and 94243 1x8 BP)
I advise getting cable P/N 83KNG and the 2x4 backplane (not remembering that particular part number)
