Without looking at your adaptec card to see if it has a Silicon Image RAID 
chip, usually marked as an SIL#### on the chip I can't say for sure but SIL 
RAID chips do cause DMA issues.  I had a 2 channel Adaptec card that used a 
SIL chip and it wouldn't work well with FreeBSD.  I got similar errors that 
you are seeing.  Unfortunately with the SIL RAID chips some versions of the 
same chip (they don't change chip versions with all chip changes) will work 
with FreeBSD.

I would say your problem is either the RAID card or the drive(s).  I would 
try diagnostics on the drives from the manufacturer's websites.  If the 
drives pass these tests I would replace the RAID card since you already 
tried new cables.
