hi, can anyone tell me what this message is related to?

WRITE_DMA UDMA ICRC error (retrying request) LBA=62939519

drive/hardware failing?
i am seeing a lot of it lately on a particular disk where i have tried a few
different installs and do not always
get this problem. i have seen it disappear after some painstaking before an
install to it, like wiping the whole disk clean before install, checking
geometry is right, but maybe coincidence?
it is a sata300, 7.2 beta1 amd64 and i am thinking there is problem with the
disk, but the error varied a bit with different installs (i.e. whether i see
the error or not)
