Most likely it is a HDD that does not fully support S.M.A.R.T.
logging (about half of mine are like that - the old ones)
To actually see the status of hdc you can do the following:
smartctl -a /dev/hdc -d ata
(I'm running a recent smartmontools so the command options
could be a bit different - redhat 'smartctl' one is WAY old)
This command will most likely put the same 2 kernel errors up
on the console again.
Normally it is nothing to worry about - it seems that most
people don't understand S.M.A.R.T. and the related kernel
error it puts up.
I run this once a day in my daily check script so I can
compare each day - as well as smartd running normally
and other checks like badblocks and fsck once a day as well.
My servers are all very busy for an hour or two early every
morning before I get up :-)
