[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1030813"] It means the drive has some bad blocks that are preventing the computer from reading its contents normally. Is your MBA under warranty? If so, speak to Apple about a replacement. If not, you may want to replace the drive yourself (mechanically challenging) or pay a technician to do it. I *strongly* recommend using ONLY licensed Apple techs -- PC techs WILL ruin your machine, they know as much about grace and delicate engineering as a tea leaf knows about the history of the East India Company.
