Subject: Is my disk going bad?

I just noticed that I've been getting these for a while:

 sd1(ncr0:1:0): MEDIUM ERROR info:119a05 csi:6,a8,3,41 asc:11,43  field replaceable unit: 15 sks:80,40

sd1 is a Quantum 1080S.  I don't have the probe messages since the
medium error messages have scrolled them away.

I just yesterday turned on remapping:

% scsi -f /dev/rsd1 -m 1
AWRE (Auto Write Reallocation Enbld):  1 
ARRE (Auto Read Reallocation Enbld):  1 

but it's not remapping, it's still returning errors.

Is this the disk going so bad that it can't reallocate to good blocks?

Thanks,
  Bill
