Subject: 2.6.31-rc8 libata WARNING?

Ok, After doing some more tests, I can be fairly certain that my disk is not 
at fault, testing just ONE of my 2 WD Green drives, not using any md raid, or 
filesystem on top I get the following:

And that happens after only a couple minutes of: dd if=/dev/sdc of=/dev/null

And this is with the WD that wasn't previously showing up in any dmesg logs. 
I'm assuming if I let the dd test run, I will continue to see more errors 
until the entire libata subsystem causes the sata driver to kneel over and 
die.

I'm going to let it run for a while to see what happens.
