I've been hoping for an explanation for this for ages.
My log entry is slightly different:

Mar 10 16:49:05 steeltoe /kernel: ad0: WRITE command timeout tag=0 serv=0 - resetting
Mar 10 16:49:05 steeltoe /kernel: ata0: resetting devices .. done

I get these once or twice a week and have for as far back as I keep log
files (last July).
(I'm still running 4.3-STABLE because I'm lazy like that - last updated
May 17th of last year.)
It was suggested that maybe my hard drive cables are longer than 18" but
this is not the case.
