I received the following error message

The hard disk at channel 2, target 1 had a soft error.

The output of a system check reveiled the following (see entry <2,1> ):

My question is; Can someone explain why or in which circumstances I would receive this error message? Also What actions would you suggest?

Thanx in advance.
