I really don't think this is hardware related.
I just ran ESTOOL utility on my drive and did extensive tests. The drive is pristine.
I am sure some die hard bug in the kernel is causing this.
This whole thing started 3 months after Karmic Koala release...
I may try a stock kernel since we may be suffering some kind of ubuntu "clever" kernel tweaks...
