the CentOS smartctl _does_ work (for me at least) with SATA disks if you

I was able to run this command and the output is attached. Does anything
there point to a disk HW failure? I still think that I'm just suffering from
file system corruption.
You can run a long test with
smartctl -d ata -t long /dev/sda
I just started this now, and it told me to wait for 70 minutes for the test
to complete. How do I check its results?
You an use the smartctl "-l" option to view the results:
$ smartctl -l selftest /dev/hda
