Solution Steps:
- Check SATA Cable and reboot and check
- Replug all Cables and reboot and check
- Change the SATA PORTS! Sata1 to Sata2 for Disk0
- Change the SATA PORTS! Sata3 to Sata4 for Disk1
- Often the Harddisks are NOT damaged!!
- Looks like a failed Hardware Control by the SATA 600 Controllers with SATA 300/150
- take new SATA 600 Drives and recheck
Remark: Windows Systems have same Error without Logs, the Systems seems to hang for seconds!
