Harddrives failing?

I've got 4 identical drives connected in a software raid 5 plugged in to my computer. This raid has been working perfectly for the last 2-3 years I believe, but a week ago, all of the drives started to act up.

I get these messages in dmesg:

with sda,sdb,sdf,sdg being the raid-drives, the device names are like that as they're connected to two different controllers.

Now, my first thought was that this was simply a result of bad hard drives, but since all of them failed at once, without showing problems in the past, I was wondering if it might be something else?

I tried switching the drives over to other controllers, and they seem operational for a couple of hours or so, and then fail out. I have another disk, my root partition connected, and tried that one on various controllers as well and that works without problems.

I might just be unlucky here, and as they're still operational for some time, I've managed to back up data and stuff, I was just wondering if I should throw all of these drives out or if someone has seen anything like this before?

Thanks in advance.
