This looks like a problem a couple of folks already reported. For me it
looks like ATA bug, as if I recall correctly various controllers from
various vendors are affected. Unfortunately Soren isn't very active
lately. As a work-around you may try disabling write cache on your
disks (hw.ata.wc=0 to /boot/loader.conf), but this may only help to
mitigate the problem.
