SErr 0x700401 is...

ERR.I   : Recovered data integrity error
ERR.P   : Protocol error
DIAG.H  : Handshake error
DIAG.C  : CRC error
DIAG.D  : Disparity error

So, you're suffering frequent transmission errors (not media).  The
probable causes are...

* Wrong cabling (faulty cable, bad contacts)
* Power fluctuation or other electromagnetic interference
* Faulty hardware (controller and/or drive)

Try to...

* Reconnect whole thing.
* Swap cables.
* Swap drives.
* Swap controller ports.
* Swap power connectors.
