The system failed to flush data to the transaction log. Corruption may occur.

Have had this error twice now, when starting an Acronis full system backup to my dedicated 300GB backup disk - there are dozens of these errors around the times that I kick off the backup. Could this indicate a bad drive?

well I have tried it on my backup drive, reported no errors. Will continue to try it on the others. Fairly worrying however, as I havent been able to complete a system backup and I deleted my old backups as I had run out of space! Not only that, Im running my Vista install and program files off a RAID 0 array....
