Hard to say for sure without seeing it in person, but I doubt its anything with the BIOS. Was the drive new when you bought it, or used?
Download a program like CrystalDiskMark or Hard Disk Sentinel, and run a health check on the hard drive. This isn't going to recover the drive or anything, but I'm curious as to why you had it happen twice in a row. I just want to see if the drive is on it's way out or not.
Don't format it yet...you still might be able to recover your data.
