Assuming the disks are seen directly on the bus (e.g. show up as daX,
adaX, or whatever), please install ports/sysutils/smartmontools (make
sure you're using version 5.42 or newer) and please provide output from
the following command: "smartctl -a /dev/XXX" where XXX is the device
name of the ST1000DL002 disk(s).  Please be sure to state which device
name is associated with which smartctl output.  You can delete or
remove the disk serial numbers from the output (for privacy) if you
wish.  I'll be happy to review the data and tell you whether or not the
disks themselves are showing problems or if the issue is elsewhere.
