OK.  For those that have never seen this before, here is what messages 
looks like when a hard drive is going belly up:

It won't accept any more files either.  That looks like this:

So, if you see things like this in your log file, rescue data real 
soon.  Make a note of this since this could happen on your rig one day.

Now I know this is a Western Digital drive.  Let's all face it, they all 
die eventually.  I just find it ironic that it is only a few months out 
of warranty.  :-@

Oh, funny how that drive ran fine on Linux then croaked when put in a 
windoze rig.  Maybe WD just hates M$ as much as I do.  LOL
