 Just for completenes: could you mount a tmpfs on /tmp (if you haven't
 that already as part of your standard install) and then try again with a
 sequence of
 
 	# rndctl -S /tmp/seed
 
 One other thing to check if the drive knows it is failing:
 
 	# atactl wd0 smart status
 
 This could be the disk not giving up on the sector (and remapping it yet),
 but running into issues whenever trying to write it. I would expect
 dmesg spam from that though.
 
 If you have anything but the fresh install on the disk, I would do a backup
 ASAP.
