Allocation errors can be caused by many things. Damage OS, bad motherboard, bad cable, bad harddrive and such. I suggest you get the drive diagnostic utillity from the manufacturer and test the drive to start with.

Allocation errors are many times caused by hardware issues. Sometimes a faulty OS or a bad dirver is is the cause. I suggest you repair them, if you have not done so already, with a disk util like Norton Diskdoctor. Make sure you create backups of important data on a regular base, just to prevent you loosing it when it really goes wrong.
HERE
is a nice explanation on how HD's work which you may want to read in the mean time. Keep an eye on the problem and if it keeps comming back, start a new thread in "off-topic" since this is not Avast or virus related.
Good luck.
