I don't think that's possible.

If your disk gets corrupted, it  may write bad data, true. However, DRBD
doesn't re-read the written data from disk before replicating. The DRBD
driver replicates whatever your local kernel *wants* your disk to write.

Corruption of your replica can happen if
1. your link is faulty and the transmitted data is altered or
2. the drive in your Secondary becomes corrupted

There may be other scenarios.

HTH,
Felix
