Ok, I've had some flakiness with my 6.3-STABLE (Sun May 25 21:55:57 PDT
2008) box.  I assume that these errors are indicative of a system-level
problem rather than a single disk:

Event 1
-------
Sep 14 05:12:54 belle kernel: ad0: TIMEOUT - READ_DMA retrying (1 retry left) LBA=216477719

Result: Hard reset required

Event 2
-------
Sep 16 02:11:09 belle kernel: ad4: WARNING - READ_DMA UDMA ICRC error (retrying request) LBA=172088735
Sep 16 02:13:08 belle kernel: acd0: WARNING - READ_TOC taskqueue timeout - completing request directly
Sep 16 02:13:09 belle kernel: acd0: timeout waiting for ATAPI ready
Sep 16 02:13:09 belle kernel: acd0: error issuing ATA PACKET command
Sep 16 02:13:09 belle kernel: acd0: WARNING - READ_TOC freeing taskqueue zombie request
Sep 16 02:13:09 belle kernel: acd0: timeout waiting for ATAPI ready
Sep 16 02:13:09 belle kernel: acd0: error issuing ATA PACKET command
...last two repeating until reset...

Result: Hard reset required

Disk configuration:

ad0: 114473MB <WDC WD1200JB-32EVA0 15.05R15> at ata0-master UDMA100
ad4: 114473MB <WDC WD1200JD-00GBB0 02.05D02> at ata2-master SATA150
ad6: 476940MB <Seagate ST3500641AS 3.AAJ> at ata3-master SATA150

I'm using one of those eSATA converter brackets in the back of the machine
for ad6.  I'm guessing this doesn't have to do with this problem since that
disk wasn't mentioned.

Any advice you can offer will be much appreciated.

Thanks,

-Clint
