Are the devices for ravol and datvol on the same SATA bus or controller?

Errno 5 is EIO:

/usr/include/asm-generic/errno-base.h:#define	EIO		 5	/* I/O error */

So something below XFS returned EIO. This could happen due to IO
timeouts caused by link reset and error recovery on the other SATA device.
