Yes, but it is very unlikely. I have written TB of data there without any
problems. Anyway this is my 3rd exchanged SAMSUNG disk ...

I tried to disable NCQ on all disks and tried to rebuild the raid, but it
still failed to rebuild with the same error message.

I also tried the nolapic kernel parameter without success.

/dev/sda: 5 Reallocated_Sector_Ct 0x0033 100 100 010 Pre-fail Always - 0
/dev/sdb: 5 Reallocated_Sector_Ct 0x0033 100 100 010 Pre-fail Always - 0
/dev/sdc: 5 Reallocated_Sector_Ct 0x0033 091 091 010 Pre-fail Always - 413
/dev/sdd: 5 Reallocated_Sector_Ct 0x0033 100 100 010 Pre-fail Always - 0
/dev/sde: 5 Reallocated_Sector_Ct 0x0033 100 100 010 Pre-fail Always - 0
/dev/sdf: 5 Reallocated_Sector_Ct 0x0033 100 100 010 Pre-fail Always - 0

The only thing is that the Reallocated_Sector_Ct is still >0 on /dev/sdc
(keep in mind this is my 3rd new Samsung disk on /dev/sdc and I had up to
3000 Reallocated_Sector_Ct on previous disks in < 1 day !!!).

Should I replace the disk a fourth time?

When you search in google you find a lot of threads with the timeout
problem. Might this be a software issue?

Any ideas?

Thnx.

Ciao,
Gerhard
