But its major breakage indicators (SMART Attribute IDs 5, 197, and 198) are all zero, after SMART Long Tests have been run. I'm thinking cable or controller port...

The TrueNAS Hard Drive Troubleshooting Guide is so good that it's worth bookmarking.
Edit: Beware Section 4(d) which says "Swap the DATA cables between the suspect drive and a nearby drive". This may cause a second, potentially fatal failure on the "nearby drive", if the cable is at fault.
