They became more and more frequent to the point of starting to kill the whole IDE controller (other channel was killed too) and killing the system within 5-30 minutes of starting up. I was about to send the drive (IBM 7200rpm 41GiB) back for replacement when I as last resort tried to upgrade the firmware of the drive. After the upgrade the drive started working again, fully passed the Drive Fitness Test (IBM utility) and it has been working for a few weeks non-stop in my file server RAID-1 array since then. I know your problems might have nothing to do with mine especially as the drives are from different manufacturers but it may be an idea to ask for a firmware upgrade. You never know...
