We used to get this on one of our machines - up until yesterday, in fact.
The drive incidentally was not a Western Digital. After reading your post
I ran badblocks, and as that showed up no problems I began wondering what
could be affecting it. After remembering that we'd had problems with a drive
that was mounted in a removable pack under NT, I removed the drive from the
removable pack it was in, and since then have had no errors. Strange, but
true.

	Cheers,
