Hard drive failure.
When you start getting CRC errors reading/writing files, and lots of them with many different files then you know you've got a hardware problem with either:
a. The hard drive (most likely)
b. The hard disk controller (unlikely)
It's most likely that the drive has been damaged. You my say ".. but the laptop is only a year old" well, the thing is, things like this happen once in a while.
- Do you have extended/warranty for the laptop? If so, it'll be covered.
- If you don't have available warranty you'd be looking at purchasing a new drive for your laptop.
Copy off what you can, forget the rest though, because chances are you won't be able to get it back.
