You're using Intel MatrixRAID, aren't you? Please migrate away from
this immediately, your data is at risk.
http://wiki.freebsd.org/JeremyChadwick/ATA_issues_and_troubleshooting
The problem you're experiencing is documented there.
There is no solution, as far as I know. The problems still exist on
RELENG_7 also.
I recommend you back up (off-load) all of your data onto a disk or
system somewhere else, and use gmirror(8) instead. Please, stay away
from Intel MatrixRAID on FreeBSD.
