Do you think that disks never have data corruptions? Doing backups on HDDs
doesn't protect you
from bad disks. It's even worst, because instead of having 5 versions of
your data accross 10 tapes,
you have only one disk array to store everything.

The read/write block checksums code works for years now, i would say that
it's shouldn't be a
software problem...

Sorry, but i don't think that you can recover from this error. If you can
live with bad blocks on this
set of data (possible for MP3, AVI, SQL dump, etc...), perhaps you can
comment the checksum
comparison code in src/stored/block.c, compile the new storage daemon and
run your restore.

Bye
