I'm running on the Intel(R) ICH9M - E/M SATA AHCI Controller and it is giving me an error message reporting a Smart Event. How serious is this?

It would be good to know the details regarding this S.M.A.R.T. event but there is a possibility that the drive is about to fail; therefore it is recommended to backup your data as soon as possible.

Is this an Intel® SSD or is it a different brand?
