Do the stats below support the theory that these are timeouts due to media errors? Does anyone know if Samsung Spinpoint drives can be tweaked to not try so hard to retrieve data? Or is it possible to make the kernel more tolerant of such timeouts?
My Samsung Spinpoint F1's can have TLER enabled using a more recent smartctl. It's not appeared as part of a formal release yet but a patch went in to r3065 in SVN: http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/smartmontools/log/trunk/smartmontools
