you can hear these errors as they have a very unique sound.  The disk 
attempts to read the sector fails times out and then attempts again for 
as many times as the driver tells it too.  If you listen to the drive 
you can hear it spin, stutter, stop, repeat.

It could be heat I have had the same thing happen in several laptops 
but they get abused on all counts so I couldn't put it down to one.
