The drives have an open slot between them and a 120mm fan right in
front of them, so I don't think overheating is an issue. At one
point, I shut the machine down and let it sit for an hour or so. The
errors started back up immediately during the boot process when I
turned it back on.
The log entries are adjacent...usually with the exact same timestamp.
There are no other errors mixed in with them.
I was able to get the system to boot yesterday. It triggered a raid
rebuild which finished last night. The last batch of errors happened
at 4am and the system appears to be running normally now.
Here's a snip from the logs showing the errors and the rebuild:

----------------------------------
These errors are showing ata3 and ata4 because I switched the drives
to different SATA connections on the MB. These are the same drives
that I showed previously with errors on ata1 and ata2.
