Additionally, with the badblocks operation you've seen 4 complete writes
and reads of every location that good possibly be used by ext3 or 4 on
the drive (ie all of sda1). Would executing something like the
following help rule out the controller and drive for you?
dmesg > dmesg-before.log
for i in $(seq 1 10); do
dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/sda bs=512
dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/null bs=512
done
dmesg > dmesg-after.log
I'd think if this were a controller or drive issue, 10 full iterations
over the entire drive would cause the issue to surface, no?
