[GLLUG] HDD Errors?

I'd recommend hitting the drive with some SMART tests, but regardless,
at least copy all the data to another machine and verify the copied data
matches the original before you go checking around.  There have been
some IDE chipsets in the past that slowly corrupted data written to the
drive over time.
