I had been running dmesg |tail without the number, so it displayed only
the last half dozen lines or so. I never saw anything untoward.
However, just now I tried it again and, as before, there was nothing
relating to disks except the very last line:

[304047.428979] VFS: busy inodes on changed media or resized disk sr0

Back when it was mounting media (even though it failed to remove the
mount point) I never saw this line.

So now I'm beginning to think it is not a hardware failure. But I
need someone to translate the above line into English.
