I can't say for sure, but yeah, CRC errors on hd* devices would make me 
nervous too. Do your drives support SMART? I'd turn it on just in case 
it turns out to be useful. And do yer backups!!!

'Twould probably be good (potentially alarming as well :) if you were to 
peer into the logs a little further and take a look at what else (if 
anything) was going on around the time of those errors.

If anyone has a quickie to grep for certain errors *and* display, let's 
say, the 25 lines before and after the errors it greps out, that would 
be handy.
