Serial ATA Errors

Hello Everyone,
I started seeing some ata errors on a server running FreeBSD 5.4-STABLE
that I've never seen before. This probably has something to do with it but
we just upgraded the RAM on the server from 1 GB to 2 GB (DDR 400),
perhaps a cable got slightly loose. I'm pretty certain the hard drives are
good since the server ran fine prior to the memory upgrade.
What do the errors below mean? Should I be worried?

Mounting root from ufs:/dev/ad4s1a
I've been trying to upgrade to the latest RELENG_5 but I can't get the
buildworld to finish cleanly -- gcc keeps crashing at random places
probably due to the errors above.
Any help or advice would be appreciated. This server is remotely hosted so
it's not as easy to fiddle with the hardware inside.
Thank You,
Holt G.
