Seagate ST6000DM003-2CY186 "flapping". Disconnecting and reconnecting randomly.

I have a ST6000DM003-2CY186 as part of a ZFS array [1] and it keeps
dropping
out of the array with the messages below showing up in dmesg. How can I
figure out more specifically why it's dropping and get it to stay?
I've had the drive in 2 different bays in my hotswap cage, used 2
different
cables connected to 2 different motherboard ports and now having it
running
next to the server directly attached to take the hotswap bay out of the
picture. I set a loader hint to downgrade to SATA 2 but that hasn't
helped
either. I'm very much running out of ideas. What really drives me crazy
is
that (other than the total time taken because of the internal SMR
housekeeping) it made it through the initial resilver without a problem.
There doesn't seem to be much of a pattern to the drops. It doesn't
correlate with any activity or specific span of lack of activity that
I've
been able to identify.

[1] Yes I know it's SMR and that's a bad idea for ZFS or any RAID but
it's a
stopgap to hopefully keep the array redundant until prices get less
crazy.
