A small number of uncorrectable read errors is normal in the life of any drive. It has no relocations, and no pending sectors. The latency spikes are likely due to slow degradation of some sectors that the drive is having to internally retry to read successfully. Again, normal. I own some "DM001" drives -- they are unsuited to raid duty as they don't support ERC. So, out of the box, they are time bombs for any array you put them in. That's almost certainly why they were ejected from your array. If you absolutely must use them, you *must* set the *driver* timeout to 120 seconds or more.
