Jim,

A belated reply, but I had similar problems and it turned out to be a faulty SATA connector to the motherboard. Had all sorts of error messages, blamed everything in turn, bought new motherboard and while disconnecting the drives, found the flimsy plastic sata plug was cracked and allowed sideways movement on the connectors, intermittently causing faults. A new Sata lead solved the problem.

Oh what a mistake, I updated my mother board to the latest version with
on-board SATA RAID. The initial boot and view of all the hardware looked
good indeed I used the system for a few days with no problems. It was when I
came to add new images to the RAID drives that it all went skew wiff; I seem
to have after much investigation (I initially blamed Microsoft on SP2) have
a hardware fault on the mother board with the SATA RAID controller; it
effectively made both disks unreadable.
