I did look through the manual and searched a bit on google, but I'm not
having much luck finding even suggestions of what to try. Does anyone
have any suggestions?

I reported a similar problem with a Maxtor D740X-SL 40GB drive a few
weeks ago. I cannot get this drive to work properly with recent
versions of FreeBSD, and get the same error during installation. The
disk seems to work fine with Fedora and Ubuntu. I made it work by
disabling DMA, but the performance was awful. My motherboard is an ASUS
P4S533.
Hmmm ... well, I already have a few fBSD installs, maybe I'll try Ubuntu
or something for the dual-boot. Never hurts to try something new.
