Perhaps you should try a memtest (in addition to the other message(s)).

It's usually quite hard to get corrupt data from a harddrive without getting
*loaded* with errors; i've seen enough defunct harddrives, but i've never been
able to read from them without getting a lot of errors.
That's why i think i suspect the memory (RAM).

Check out memtest86 (http://www.memtest86.com/).
