From the Problem Determination course(Q1316)docs:

"Rule of thumb: Replace disk if it produces more than one DISK_ERR4 per
week"

This is pretty agressive, especially on a new system. Once a system
"settles in," once a week should prompt a disk replacement.

IMHO,
Harold Hass

DISK_ERR_4 are simply bad-block relocation errors. They are quite normal.
However, I heard that if you get more than 8 in an 8-hour period, you
should get the disk replaced as it is showing signs of impending failure.

We have a 6H1 and a 6H0 since fairly new we've been getting these error
messages. I have placed hardware calls, the last one was escalated to the
factory. The response we got was that this was quite normal and to be
expected. They said that we should monitor the situation and see how it
goes. I'd really appreciate knowing if anyone else has seen a similar
problem.

Many Thanks
