Hi!

Maybe I am a bit off topic but I sometimes get error messages like the 
following in my /var/adm/messages file. Since I do not really know how to 
interpret them I wonder what to do. Does this mean that my drive dies slowly 
or is it possible that is due to some termination problem?

Any idea?
