IO error issues with MD3000i on Linux

Here is a basic question -

dmesg shows many errors from the md3000i.   Newer kernels treat the
"errors" more appropriately.

My question is - are the errors really bad errors?   Is the hardware,
or is the data, really in trouble?  Or, are the logged errors simply
benign software reports that the kernel and drivers don't know any
better how to deal with the responses from the md3000i, but the data
and hardware are all fine?

Thanks in advance.
