dmesg.boot never changes. When I remove the drive, I see this from dmesg:
ata4: DISCONNECT requested
subdisk8: detached
ad8: detached
ata4: DISCONNECTED
And when I plug it back in,
ata4: CONNECT requested
ata4: DISCONNECTED
ata4: CONNECTED
ata4: SATA connect time=0ms
ata4: SIGNATURE: 0000000c
ata4: No signature, asuming disk device
ata4: ahci_reset devices=0x1<ATA_MASTER>
ata4: reiniting channel ..
ata4: SATA connect time=0ms

There were several similar reports. AHCI driver can't read correct
device signature after hard reset and can't detect attached device.
This issue was fixed with hack which you can see in this output:

Linux's libata driver has a quirk for VIA AHCI:
/* vt8251 doesn't clear BSY on signature FIS reception,
* request follow-up softreset.
*/
If i right understand it issues softreset for VIA controllers just
after hardreset. And after softreset it is trying to read device signature.
FreeBSD CURRENT has similar code, but it is disabled by default.
You can try install CURRENT and rebuild ata_ahci driver with AHCI_PM option.
May be it will help..
