Perhaps you have a problem with something other than the drives, e.g.:
- a bad or insufficient PSU, providing too low (or too high) voltage over 5V
or 12V (this could manifest only under load, too);
- not enough cooling?
- inadequate case, resulting in overly high vibration or even resonance?

If you see a sectors repeatedly appearing that become unreadable but are fixed
after a write, it is usually a symptom of a drive that is partially defective
and should be exchanged.
But since you have this symptom with all of them, maybe the cause is different.

No.
