8.1 amd64 lockup (maybe zfs or disk related)

Thanks for the response.
I have no tunings in /boot/loader.conf
according to http://wiki.freebsd.org/ZFSTuningGuide for amd64
"FreeBSD 7.2+ has improved kernel memory allocation strategy and no
tuning may be necessary on systems with more than 2 GB of RAM. "
I have 8GB of ram.
do you think this is wrong?
Handbook recommends these (but says their test system has 1gb ram):
vm.kmem_size="330M"
vm.kmem_size_max="330M"
vfs.zfs.arc_max="40M"
vfs.zfs.vdev.cache.size="5M"
what do you recommend?
I think the ad0: FAILURE - READ_DMA4 errors may be from a bad sata cable
(or rather, a 12in sata cable connecting a drive that is one inch away)
I'm ordering a new drive bay to improve this, but should a bad cable
cause lockups?
Thanks for your help.
Here's my smartctl output:
#smartctl -a /dev/ad0
