Uncorrectable Errors with specific LBAs are usually a very solid indicator for a defective drive. If you could share the full `smartctl -x /dev/sda` output, we might be able to establish/identify some further hints on a failing drive instead of a bad cable. I would strongly suggest to take a final backup of whatever is still accessible (if desired) and then decomission the drive.
