Hi,

Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner.  This e-mail thread got lost in
my inbox, so thanks for pinging me about it.

These lines in the logs clearly show that it is a hardware problem.
It could be an issue with the SATA controller, or cables, or even
something in the motherboard.

The following article (found via Google) on Serverfault might be
