Hi
I'm using a Bunch auf HDDs in USB-Enclosures for storing files.
(currently 38 HDD, with a total capacity of 9,5 TB of which 8,5 TB is used)
This time i kept the defective files and used "vbindiff" to show me the
difference. Strangly in EVERY case the difference is a single bit in a
sequence of "0xff"-Bytes inside a block of varing bit-values that
changed a "0xff" into a "0xf7".
Also interesting is that each error is at a 0xXXXXXXX5-Position
Attached is a file with 5 of the 6 differences named 1-5. Of each of the
5 2x3 lines-blocks the first 3 lines are the original the following 3
lines contain the error in the middle row 6th value.
NEVER did i see any messages in syslog regarding erros or an aborting
program due to errors passed down from the kernel or something like that.
