Second Harddisk Mount Problem

After upgrade from 8.2 -> 9.0 and reinstall ports and reboot a couple of times, the 2nd harddisk no longer able to mount. Any idea?

dmesg can see the second harddisk (ada0, previously was known as ad8).

Code:
ada0 at ata4 bus 0 scbus2 target 0 lun 0
ada0: <Hitachi HDS722020ALA330 JKAOA3EA> ATA-8 SATA 2.x device
ada0: 150.000MB/s transfers (SATA 1.x, UDMA5, PIO 8192bytes)

Trying to mount root from ufs:/dev/ad0s1a [rw]...

But the harddisk is not found in /dev/

Code:
# ls -l /dev/ad*
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel            4 Feb  1 11:11 /dev/ad0 -> ada1
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel            6 Feb  1 11:11 /dev/ad0s1 -> ada1s1

crw-r-----  1 root  operator    0,  94 Feb  1 19:11 /dev/ada1s1e

Any command that can make the harddisk appear again? The second harddisk/partition is in UFS2 and was created using function in sysinstall.

Thank you in advance.
 
Disable intergrity check via /boot/loader.conf does not solve the problem.

The dmesg result show the ada0 has once detected, but next lines, it remove ada0 from the device entry. So is it like be caused by failure hardware, or driver issue, or?
 
Ah. I see, it indeed seems to disappear.
Code:
(ada0:ata4:0:0:0): lost device
(ada0:ata4:0:0:0): removing device entry

Did you check a few obvious things? Power cable, SATA cable etc.?
 
Thanks for the reminder, I didn't think of the obvious thing at first. Power off (instead of just reboot), unplug / replug cables at least solve the problem for now.
