The badblocks did not do anything; however, when I built a software raid 5 and the performed a dd:
/usr/bin/time dd if=/dev/zero of=fill_disk bs=1M
I saw this somewhere along the way:

Next test, I will turn off NCQ and try to make the problem re-occur. If anyone else has any thoughts here..? I ran long smart tests on all 3 disks, they all ran successfully.
Perhaps these drives need to be NCQ BLACKLISTED with the P35 chipset?
Justin.
