dealing with bad blocks?

Hey folks,

I just bought 2 new SSDs and reinstalled the latest CentOS7 on a RAID1
configuration on my desktop, and ever since then have been having annoying
problems of the system hanging for 10 seconds to a couple of minutes, and
it will do this every 5 or 10 minutes.  I had a feeling right from the
beginning that I was dealing with bad blocks so I started googling for ways
to deal with that.

Anyway, I just had it hang again and did CTRL-ALT-F2 to get a console, and
from there I saw this for the first time

And I'm not 100% sure what the problem is, though it does clearly seem to
be a disk problem.

I guess since I am fully RAID1 my next step will be to power down and
unplug a disk and boot it up, and wait to see if I have the issue.  If so
then power down again and try the other drive.

From this can someone confirm the problem?  And how to deal with it?  I
guess since these are brand new disks only in operation 2 or 3 weeks I
should be looking at warranty no?  Or should I use the badblocks program or
something else to deal with it?
