Is my HDD dying or something else from these errors and symptoms?

I would make sure to run a backup ASAP, like right now.
Already did onto hda since that's the only HDD I have to back up to).
Now, how come before these errors came up my motherboard couldn't see
BOTH HDDs? Is that related or just a coincident?
Well, you have a Quantum and a Seagate, both on the same cable.
Some models of these competing manufacturers (oh that was a while ago) could
not play nice with each other. That problem needed not to show up at the
first time though ....
And one stalling/blocking harddrive (electronics) can block the whole bus.
