1st, don't use all CAPS as it is hard to read & is considered yelling.
An uncorrectable media error generally means there is a fatal flaw in the drive & it will need replacement. If you can still boot to the drive, I'd suggest you backup your data immediately. Once you've saved your data (you have to do it, Dell will not) call Dell & get the drive replaced.
