Hi,
I'm getting same messages. I'm think that they are not serious, they
started apear from time when I moved my system from crapy WD drive to new
IBM ... my stupid BIOS can't handle drives bigger than 32GB so I had put
there that jumper which limit drive to 32GB size ... at I hope ... I don't
want to see another dead drive same year ;)
