harware question - cd-rom error message

Debian stable. CD/DVD drive appears to be crapping out. dmesg shows:

[snip]
hdc: attached ide-cdrom driver
hdc: ATAPI 32X DVD-ROM drive, 256kB Cache, DMA
Uniform CD-ROM driver Revision: 3.12
hdc: packet command error: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
hdc: packet command error: error=0x30
ATAPI device hdc:
   Error: Medium error -- (Sense key=0x03)
   (reserved error code) -- (asc=0x57, ascq=0x00)
   The failure "Test Unit Ready" packet command was:
   "00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 "
[snip]

Is it time for a new drive?

Thanks much.
