Your SMART log shows 309 reallocated sectors. That seems somewhat high..
Ah sorry to misinterpret the content:), its a quiet new piece of hardware (at most ~1.5 month old) and "Reallocated_Event_Count" constantly increases (currently its increased to 313) and although i'm not 100 percent sure these errors only occured with kernels > 2.6.18 (or 2.6.18 didn't report these cause according to kern.log these only visible with 2.6.22+)

OS and driver can't really do much about the reallocation event.  Some
number of reallocations is okay but if you it going up constantly, you
probably have a dying disk.

Or, as I learned the hard way, if you have the problem on all drives sharing a power supply, a power issue.

We bought 3 HP Pavillon dv2385ea and one of them only runs with 2.6.18 and its smartctl output follows as a reference;

5 Reallocated_Sector_Ct 0x0033 253 253 010 Pre-fail 196 Reallocated_Event_Count 0x0032 253 253 000 Old_age

Hmm... This is pretty high too.  Do the counts increase on this machine too?
