It's either a failing HDD, or the HDD/controller hardware you're using isn't
compatible with FreeBSD.

If it's been working for a while without problems, and suddenly started doing
this (as you seem to imply) then it's definately failing hardware.

If it's been doing this since install, then it'll be just a little harder to
debug.  If you post dmesg output and hardware details, I'm sure someone who's
familiar with that hardware will let you know if this is expected or not.
