I'd run both a disk and memory diagnostic -- those are the most likely
problems. Unfortunately, diagnostics are not perfect. Most disk diagnostics
only check a percentage of the disk (we're talking about the "surface scan"
or "hardware test", not the normal directory structure repair), and memory
tests may not exercise the memory hard enough to reveal a problem. Photoshop
pushes computers hard and any hardware flakiness will often appear there
first. 

*Moving* files to another disk won't help if they're already corrupted.
Saving files to a different disk won't help if the original disk is bad and
Photoshop's scratch is there. You can rule out the disk itself by switching
Photoshop's scratch volume to a different drive (must be a different
*physical* drive; partitions don't count), and creating and saving a file
only on the new drive.
