Strange, I never had this problem on my home fileserver (3 years now). It is an HP ML 110G3 very low entry level model. Of course I use a cheap ups for temp power failures but I had my experiences with hard reboots.
It could be a MB problem with the SATA drives. Especially if it is old it might not be able to handle SATA differently than IDE thus soft updates do not report correct. What happens if you remove soft-updates ? Do you have the same issues?
