Just thought I'd mention that I saw lots of DMA errors when installing
Nexenta (OpenSolaris kernel) 1.0RC2 on an ML110 G5 using a ZFS mirror of
two 1G Seagate Barracuda ES SATAs. The DMA timeouts vanished when I
tried again with Nexenta 1.0 proper.

Might it be worth someone having a look at the Solaris SATA driver
diffs to see if any insight can be gained?
