Don't blaim the HD, blaim you motherboard. Had the same problems, but the HD
in another machine and no more errors. Errors a most likely to happen on a
MB with TRITON chipset and support installed. The message isn't anything
bad, your system will work normally.

This isn't related to the above error... Run a machine with this error fine
for 50 days, until the power in my house failed....
