Hello,
I noticed my disk not responding yesterday, so I checked dmesg, and
found this:
Oct 21 11:49:21 localhost kernel: hda: dma_intr: status=0x51 {
DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
Oct 21 11:49:21 localhost kernel: hda: dma_intr: error=0x84 {
DriveStatusError BadCRC }
Oct 21 11:49:21 localhost kernel: ide: failed opcode was: unknown
Oct 21 11:49:21 localhost kernel: hda: dma_intr: status=0x51 {
DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
Oct 21 11:49:21 localhost kernel: hda: dma_intr: error=0x84 {
DriveStatusError BadCRC }
Oct 21 11:49:21 localhost kernel: ide: failed opcode was: unknown

Oct 21 11:49:22 localhost kernel: hda: dma_intr: error=0x84 {
DriveStatusError BadCRC }

Oct 21 11:49:22 localhost kernel: hda: dma_intr: status=0x51 {
DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
Oct 21 11:49:22 localhost kernel: hda: dma_intr: error=0x84 {
DriveStatusError BadCRC }

Oct 21 11:49:22 localhost kernel: ide0: reset: success
Uh oh, bad news, right? But here's the thing:
*) I went back and looked at my logs. This has been going on
infrequently for something like a month. If it were going to die, you'd
think it would have done it already, right? I backed up what I needed
to immediately, of course.
*) I have windows (yuck) on a second disk, that stopped booting last
week in anything but safe mode. Twiddling the BIOS DMA settings seemed
to fix things. But I put those back to normal and it's still booting
ok.
*) The disk itself is very new.
smartctl seems to think it's ok, too:

So... I'm thinking cables, especially because the computer's case is
kind of cramped and they are stuffed in there. Anyone else want to
place a bet?
Thanks,
Dave
