What Is Ultra DMA CRC Error Count?

UDMA (Ultra DMA) stands for Ultra Direct Memory Access. It is a hard drive technology that allows hard drives to communicate directly with memory without relying on the CPU. CRC stands for Cyclic Memory Check, which is a checksum that can detect if data is corrupted.

When you combine the two, the Ultra DMA CRC error count indicates problems with the transfer of data between the host and the disk.

It is a one-time error that can be caused by anything. So, you don’t need to care about it unless it keeps going up.

What Causes the UDMA CRC Error Count?

The UDMA_CRC_Error_Count error generally indicates an issue with your SATA connector or cables. In addition, it can also be caused by other common causes, which include:

  • There are some issues with your RAID configuration.
  • There are improper connections.
  • The SATA controller drivers are outdated.
  • There is some damage to the storage drive.

Just as we said above, if you get a single-digit count, you can ignore the error and simply reboot the PC. If it’s happening often and the count is higher, you can pay some attention to it and try the methods below to fix it.
