/var/log/messages weird problem

In var/log/messages i see these kind of messages somethimes.
First i thouht it was a defective disc , so i've changed it , but messages still appear.
What could this be ?

hdb: dma_intr: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
hdb: dma_intr: error=0x84 { DriveStatusError BadCRC }

Plesk 7.5.2 on RH9
 
I hope you have good backups! Looks like your drive is failing, bad CRC's usually indicate bad sectors on the drive, in this case it's your 'hdb' drive.
 
I have an another weird problem, nothing writing in /var/log/messages and this is since I reinstalled the system.
 
1) Are the other logs being written to?
2) Are you out of disk space? # df -h
 
Check the contents of /etc/syslog.conf and make sure you have a line similar to the following:

*.info;mail.none;news.none;authpriv.none;cron.none /var/log/messages

it should be close to the top of the file
 
Only to /usr/local/psa/var/log/maillog

/var/log/cron

/var/log/spooler

/var/log/boot.log

/var/log/secure
/var/log/messages

All is empty, strange that syslog dameon is working.

I already checked syslog.conf and is OK, this is why is strange.
