It's a Promise FastTrak TX2000 with two mirrored 160Gb Maxtor drives.

I thought so too, because multiple weird errors usually point to the hardware.

But I have three identical systems with the only difference being the contents 
of the disks. The other two systems are running 4.10-STABLE with heavy load 
without any problems. I swapped the disks (only the disks) with a working 
system twice now and it locks up just the same.

I think the chance of three systems having the same hardware problem is really 
small, especially because 4.10-STABLE hasn't had a single problem on those 
systems in the couple of months they run.

Maybe 5.2-CURRENT has a specific problem with the hardware in the systems? But 
it's not like it is exotic hardware, they are SuperMicro 1U barebones with a 
Celeron 2600, 512MB of RAM and a FastTrak TX2000.
