For the record ... , that entry, I think, is about the temperature of the hard drive. To truly test your hard drive you should run "fsck" with the proper command line options to see if anything needs to be fixed. I am sure Linux probably has a gui wrapper around that tool that will make it easier to use. It is worth checking out if you have the time. The testing can take a good bit of time depending on how big your drive is and how full it is. Testing the drive is often done periodically after some number "n" of mounts.
