Are there any port multipliers involved ? When I had 4 SATA drives = behind a port multiplier I had these type of errors frequently under = high load. I was using ZFS so dialed back the outstanding queue depth = from 10 to 2 to reduce load and the errors went away. I have since gone = to one port per drive (and went back to the default queue depth of 10) = and have not had the problem recur=85 But, I have seen a =93finicky-ness=94 between eSATA ports and cables. = Certain cables work on certain ports but not on others. Have you tried = substituting the eSATA cable ? A different eSATA port perhaps ?
