udma crc error - 5
check your ide cable (but 5 it's not very bad).
reallocated sectors found - 0 (main diagnostic parameter - 0 bad blocks is good (if it's greater 10 - make backups until it's not too late)
temperature 27°C - it's okay.
if it works without problems don't worry;)

I believe those are cumulative, so 5 errors since the drive was installed. That's small enough to be random chance or cosmic rays.


OP: If you are not a hardware tech and so don't know what the numbers mean yourself, the thing to do is download a drive scanner from the manufacturer of your drive. They will look at smart data first thing and report to you if anything is wrong. Then you can do longer scans or full read & write tests.
