Usually when the box has been rebooted before the failed component has been rebuilt automaticly.. Solved with:

$ gmirror forget
$ gmirror insert gm0s1 ad4s1

And now its rebuilding ad4 again...

Any new hints? Should i try RELENG_6 instead?

I upgraded to RELENG_6, changed all HW (whole servers and changed Seagate HHDs to Samsung so every piece of HW is different from time of my first post), but after one week I got the same error and system reboot today:
Aug 19 15:11:20 track ntpd[456]: kernel time sync enabled 2001

th=131072)]error = 6

From my point of view - this is not related to 1 piece of HW, but general problem of ICH7 chipset or (s)ATA driver in FreeBSD 6.x. As other poster has different chipsets (ICH6 and nVidia), it seems more FreeBSD ATA driver related. (7 different machines was tried)

Now after reboot, writing and reading from ad6 is really slow (no other processes utilizing disks, no fsck runnig etc.)

Is there anyone who can help with finding the source of problem? It is really annoying that one can not use SATA / ICH7 under high load in FreeBSD 6.1 (tested on RELEASE and STABLE) (I am not so HW / FreeBSD experienced to locate the problem by myself)
