Try a process of elimination, by swapping out each component and retesting 
until you figure out what is failing-- ie, swap the cable, try using another 
motherboard (or swap a drive that was "failing" on your problem system to 
another machine), and/or finally try swapping out the OS and try installing 
Linux or Windows and see whether this is a FreeBSD-specific problem rather 
than, say, a bad MB, flaky cable, bad power supply, etc....
