That's a lot of RMA's, bad PSU or vibration issues, or a bad lot of drives?
My educated case is that it was a bad batch of drives (Bought them sooner after their introduction). Drives in the enclosure from other MFR's have held up reliably and heat has been a non-issue.
Dan might want to see if hdparm has a tunable for the TLER setting he's concerned about. Modern mdadm versions will attempt to rewrite a sector if there's a read error using parity or mirrors to reconstruct the data. For this purpose having a short timeout before getting an error would be preferable to waiting a couple minutes.
