That's exactially what I thought when I first saw the problem as well.

However, we had about 16-20 different drives show up with the problem, about
3 different brands too. I did some low-level tests on the drives that linux
had an error on and none of my diagnostic tools could find any problems.

Any ideas?

Thanks.
