Did you also try swapping the sata cables for the drives as Mike mentioned above?

The syslog definitely shows a big problem with the hard drive. 

Something is really screwy in your logs regarding ata  failed commands. Rather than a bad hard drive, you could have a bad sata controller or motherboard. This is going to be a hardware trouble shooting job.

There is no problem here with mythtv.
