I'm far from expert at reading this so you should get a second opinion.

This looks bad.

This also looks bad, too bad I can't see listed how many sectors have 
been remapped.

This and the next also look bad.

I think this means that all your spare sectors are used.

The rest I don't even pretend to be able to judge :)
One other idea you might want to try is underclocking your drive to see 
if that helps, I had to underclock my DVD drive to install eCS. I did it 
in the BIOS but I think you can also do it with arguments to 
danis506.add. IIRC I changed the DMA to a lower number perhaps 5 to 3 
but I'm not sure and don't want to reboot to get into the BIOS right now.
