I see this (timeouts fired) as well on my Asus K8V with a single S-ATA disk; 
it happens only when the machine is ridiculously loaded (like feeding a 
5500-message mbox file into sa-learn while doing two different make -j6 
compiles and also cvsupping the FBSD tree along with another 2G source repo). 
Haven't noticed any averse effects, though - the machine chokes for 30 
seconds or so and then carries on.
