I know the messages below mean the hard drive or IDE cards are having
problems.

But is this like RED ALERT or more like YELLOW or what?

And what do I do about it?

umount and fsck everything a lot?

swap cards/drives around until it stops?

Ignore it and pray?

All the content is already copied to a second box, plus on CD, and
none of it is crucial data, so if I lose a LITTLE data by ignoring
this, I'm okay.

If the whole thing wipes out, that would be bad.

These drives are often spun down, as they are not accessed very often
-- it's the roll-over fall-back audio server in a cobbled-together
system I won't describe, as you'll just laugh at me. :-)  Is it
possible that these are just from the drives spinning up too slowly?
