I keep getting this strange message on my console

hda: status timeout: status = 0xd0 {busy}
hda: no DRQ after issuing WRITE
ida0: reset: success

While it does not seem to affect the computer (does
not hang or otherwise) it is an irritation. Not to mention
the nagging feeling that something is "wrong" with the
computer and you don't know what it is. 

What is it and how can I get rid of it?

This happens on a RedHat 6.0 installation on a new
8.4 GB HDD. CPU is 300mgz AMDk6-2. 64MB RAM.
HDD is a Seagate U8 model ST38410A. I have been 
having problems (temporary failures, strange clicking 
noises, etc.) with another Seagate HDD (windows OS)
lately. 

So could the above problem be a HDD problem?
