This means that the internal electrical element (so not read/write heads, servo/seek element) of the drive reported error, usually this is related to the internal cache memory.

Interesting to see that the Health is 100%, so would be nice to examine the complete status of the drive.
Please use Report menu -> Send test report to developer option, may give some additional ideas, thoughts.
