How old is your kernel / version of Fedora?  If you still have this with
later kernels something bad is happening.  Keep the drive backed up
daily, eg, with rsync.

I was going to suggest you can also configure the smartd service to
monitor the drive, if it detects problems it can give a more useful
diagnostic.  But then I realized it doesn't seem to be on this FC4 box
and I can no longer find it.  Previously it was in FC3 in kernel-utils.
 So there's another mystery.
