Happy gnu year @ all

How so?
ata1.00: ATA-7, max UDMA/133, 976773168 sectors: LBA48 NCQ (depth 0/32)
sda: Current: sense key: Medium Error
Additional sense: Unrecovered read error - auto reallocate failed
end_request: I/O error, dev sda, sector 976751999
Buffer I/O error on device sda1, logical block 976751936
It seems like a genuine media error to me. Many drives suffer a number
of media errors in its lifetime. Read errors happen regularly and most
such errors are corrected by ECC, but sometimes you're just not lucky
enough. Some of them are real bad sectors while others might be due to
degraded record quality even when the sector itself isn't necessary bad.
In most cases, the drive will reallocate the area including the sector
when you write to it.
Simply rewriting the affected file should solve the problem. Examine
the result of 'smartctl -d ata -a' just in case. For data of any
importance, it's always wise to use raid 1 or 5 and backup regularly.
Both help keeping your data safe in more than one way. Raid re-sync is
an easy way out of partial media failures and backing up not only gives
you another copy of the data but gives the drives chance to detect
degrading area quickly and reallocate before actual read failures begin
to occur.
