I just recently purchased an Alienware Aurora R4 open box at a local electronics store and I am a little concerned about the error messages that are popping up during the bootup. The computer runs fine and I haven't noticed any problems but I want to be sure that nothing major will happen down the road as I have a limited time to return the computer. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I took a picture of the screen with my phone but am not sure how to upload it here. This is basically what it says under Physical Devices:

ID Device Model Serial # Size Type/Status(Vol ID)
0 ST31000524AS 9VPF7T0H 931.5GB Error Occurred(0)
1 ST31000524AS 9VPF858G 931.5GB Error Occurred(0)

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
 
Solution
take it back to the place you purchased it from ASAP and tell them about the errors.

They should know about these and have fixed them prior to your purchase.
