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 don't always get this problem. i have seen it disappear after some painstaking before a reinstall this disk, 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)
