Updating might help; there are some changes to the ATA code which I
think *might* be relevant.  Don't do that first, though; it could
certainly compound your problems.

This looks like the drive is going out to lunch.

This looks like an actual media problem on the drive.

I'd recommend starting by replacing the ad1 drive, if possible.

Good luck.
