As I said it's an old problem. Now, when working on my Qubide/SGC machines, I regularly close the database and reopen it to avoid problems. Any Import is done under QPC2. I also changed drives a few times since then. I checked some old drives but none held any corrupted dbs files anymore so I can't say what status the drive was in at that time. Most likely the partition was about 100MB with 8KB blocks. Usually I only activate a 2nd partition when needed because they do take up a lot of memory. My current drive has 160MB partitions with 8KB blocks. None had the checksum-bit set so I may try that one out as well.
