I'm not an expert when it comes to hardware but as far as my
experience goes - *any* errors indicate a physical layer problems -
nic, cable, connector, shield, exceeding the ethernet spec (e.g. too
many bridges, long cables), wrong cable (e.g. CAT 5 cable used for
Gigabit (yes I know Wikipedia says some variant can be used for
Gigabit but I just stick to CAT 6)), electric interference etc.

Error count should be 0.

Hope this helps,
