hi all,
I have a laptop with a 100GB Hitachi SATA drive. the SMART log shows
the errors below (via 'sudo smartctl -a /dev/ad0' ). How badly damaged
is the disk?

[...]
Error 65535 occurred at disk power-on lifetime: 214 hours (8 days + 22
hours) When the command that caused the error occurred, the device was
active or idle.

  After command completion occurred, registers were:
  ER ST SC SN CL CH DH
  -- -- -- -- -- -- --
  10 51 08 50 11 00 e0  Error: IDNF 8 sectors at LBA = 0x00001150 = 4432

  Commands leading to the command that caused the error were:
  CR FR SC SN CL CH DH DC   Powered_Up_Time  Command/Feature_Name

[....]
(about 6 times, different LBA ranges, always 8 sectors, always WRITE
DMA EXT)

thanks!
