Unfortunately, I doubt this is the answer.  I have the same problem/
situation with my (IDE) IBM Deskstar 6.4GB drive, although I only get
the first three lines that you reported, and then only once.  You
probably just haven't waited long enough for the error to occur again.

I wish I had an answer to this as well.
