The offending drive has been removed and is awaiting the Dremel torture...
I quick rundown:
/dev/hde1 started flaking.
/dev/hda had to be converted back from ext3 to ext2 so that:
parted was used to shrink /dev/hda3. freespace was used to create /dev/hda4
so that:
data from /dev/hde1 was copied to /dev/hda4.
/dev/hda converted back to ext3
we are now good to go
