Certainly.  If you replace the disk, disk controller, and cable, the
errors will certainly go away.  Doing one of those would be enough,
but I have no way to know which piece of hardware is causing the
problem.  I recommend starting by just reseating the cable; in my
experience, this often clears up ATA bus problems.

Where do you see that?  What else do you see with it?
