I'm not so sure. I think you should check your power supply. The smartctl reports you supplied eliminate the most common problem, timeout mismatch, as you have nice raid-rated drives. The next most common problem I've seen is insufficient power, which is most apparent when writing. Add up all of the power consumption ratings of your hardware to make sure a new power supply is suitable. And if you have/get a multiple rail supply, make sure you spread the load across the independent circuits.
