Hello!

I've some trouble and cannt identify matter. May be someone knows ?
First time it looks like this:

Aug 21 18:46:27 nrr kernel: ad4: TIMEOUT - READ_DMA retrying (2 retries left) LBA=344654303
Aug 21 18:46:32 nrr kernel: ad4: FAILURE - ATA_IDENTIFY timed out
Aug 21 18:46:37 nrr kernel: ad4: FAILURE - ATA_IDENTIFY timed out
Aug 21 18:46:37 nrr kernel: ad4: WARNING - removed from configuration
Aug 21 18:46:37 nrr kernel: ata2-master: FAILURE - READ_DMA timed out

And system freeze until I manually rebooted it. After that it was work as usual, until today:

Sep 14 11:32:55 nrr kernel: ad4: TIMEOUT - READ_DMA retrying (2 retries left) LBA=12690207
Sep 14 11:33:26 nrr kernel: ad4: WARNING - removed from configuration
Sep 14 11:33:26 nrr kernel: ata2-master: FAILURE - READ_DMA timed out

And system rebooted. After loading it couln't find hard disk. I reboot again typing "reboot" - and
see, that my controller couldn't find disk. After power-off -- power-on system booted and works.

Is that HDD ? or controller ? Or something else ?
