Thank you for the hint to bug 289754 . Unfortunately, however, the issue isn't solved with 2.6.27-10-generic for me. Also, it seems that bug 289754 is about an issue with the driver for the nvidia chipset SATA controller, where in my case it is the intel ICH8 chipset driver (ata_piix)... Also, if you look at the dmesg output attached to bug 289754 , you can see that in that case SATA error messages occured *after* the SATA link has already been reported "up". In the case here, however, there are no error messages, it simply says "SATA link down", just as if no disks were connected.
