Certain Seagates have a known firmware issue that causes failures like that
(multiple at the same time, seemingly). We went through and methodically
flashed each drive last spring on a Western Scientific/EONstor array. Our
neighbors down the hall on the .gov side of the door lost an array that way .
Forget the details (drives affected, versions), but can dig if it's relevant.

I'm blaming it on Murphy.
I had 5 disks in a 16TB san volume controller die today all within 20
minutes of each other - each with different problems too...
Must be in the air... I know a few other guys who have had bad disc
failures here lately.
