With standard 512-byte sectors that's the 128 GiB boundary, the old 28-bit LBA limit (LBA28, introduced with ATA-1 in 1994, modern drives are LBA48, introduced in 2003 with ATA-6 and offering an addressing capacity of 128 PiB, according to wikipedia's article on LBA). It looks like something flipped back to LBA28, and when a continuing operation happened to write past that value... it triggered the abort you see in the SMART log. Double-check your BIOS to be sure it didn't somehow revert to the old LBA28 compatibility mode or some such, and the drives, to make sure they aren't "clipped" to LBA28 compatibility mode as well. -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
