I have a Dell PowerEdge 400SC

Everything was working find for 6 months.

Then, all of a sudden, i'm getting error on power up.

"Primary Disk not found"
Press F1 to continue or F2 for setup.

I press F1 to continue and windows start up fine.

This message was not there before, why is it there now?

It's kinda annoying.

When you Press F2 it should bring you to your BIOS Screen. Under Primary HD: does it say anything? Sounds like your hard drive may have failed.
