The problem can be hardware (loose cables, failing drive), software or damaged media. In most cases checking and cleaning the disc is the easiest way to overcome the problem. If different clean discs produce the same error, it is likely to be a hardware problem.
It looks like your disk may be scratched. Try cleaning the disk properly. There are several disk cleaning kits available, try one of them. If that doesn't help, you are out of luck. Not much you can do.
