Could be all sorts of things - disk or controller, or cabling, or
PSU...  See the libata wiki, and run smartctl -a against each drive in
turn.  Look for non-zero reallocated sector counts, non-zero pending
sector counts (check the "raw" data field for both), as well as logged
SMART errors etc. etc.  If you have a suspect bad drive, you can use
smartctl to tell the drive to run a smart long self test.  See the
documentation.
