Okay here is the run on the other partition, including a pre-conversion 
fsck.

# df -h /raid1
Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sdb1             1.8T  1.2T  557G  69% /raid1

*Pre-conversion fsck:*
# time fsck -fp /dev/sdb1
fsck 1.41.3 (12-Oct-2008)

RAID1: 3259/244203520 files (13.8% non-contiguous), 318202066/488382016

# tune2fs -O extents,uninit_bg,dir_index /dev/sdb1

Please run e2fsck on the filesystem.

*The painful fsck that does all the work:*
# time fsck -fp /dev/sdb1
fsck 1.41.3 (12-Oct-2008)
