Ok, after looking at your kernel output more, it seems like that there is
something strange with your drive: we asked for sector 232343808 (0xDD94900),
but your drive reports SectorIdNotFound on sector 234441583 (0xDF94B6F),
which is 2097775 (0x020026F) sectors away from sector we requested...
As with LBA largest transfer length is 256 sectors, there is something
wrong with your disk firmware... Which points to the dead disk
together with some bug in the disk firmware (maybe drive wanted to
report bug in sector DD9496F, but got it somehow wrong?). Can you
try running Western's drive diagnostics on that drive?
