It's definitively a drive issue; it properly reported an internal error
condition. It's not a write, but a read wich caused the issue ("Read Retries
Exhausted", and 0x28 is a "READ 10" command). If the drive does auto bad
block remapping you can just try rebuilding the raid:
raidctl -v -R /dev/sd1a raidx
rewriting the bad block should remap it.
If not, try
scsictl sd1 remap 40854918
before the raidctl
