MayÂ 3 16:15:22 Cerce kernel: [ 9976.875915] Buffer I/O error on device sda5, logical block 24149647

Do they point to a failing hard disk, or is it something else?Â It all runs perfectly - for now anyway..

IME, yes - HDD's dying. OS trying to work around the problem but failing.

Things to do:

1. Ensure your backups are good and elsewhere.

2. Depends. Is this an important machine? If so, replace the hdd now. If not, you might want to let it develop, but keep in mind it - like every other hdd - is going to go splat at some point, although it could be weeks or months into the future.Â Or seconds. :)
