I was able to solve this issue on my configuration so I hope this will help somebody. Recently I have migrated my CentOS 6.3 server from Intel based motherboard Gigabyte GA-P55-UD3L (rev. 1.0) to AMD based motherboard MSI 790FX-GD70. The only change in the system was the motherboard, cpu and memory, the rest of the configuration stayed the same. Immediately after migration I have started experiencing this exact issue
During boot I was getting errors
Nov 17 23:41:12 storage kernel: ata6.00: qc timeout (cmd 0xec)

I was able to completely eliminate this issue by
1. disabling NCQ
2. limiting the speed of SATA to 1.5GB
I have done so by modifying my /boot/grub/grub.conf and adding
libata.force=noncq,1.5G
at the end of my kernel line. This bug also seems to be related or is duplicate of Bug 549981.
