Hello,

I used a torrent client to download some DVD images and whenever I did a check 
on downloaded files everytime it founds errors on some random (everytime 
other) blocks.

So, I did the following:

kefren64# md5 test.iso
MD5 (test.iso) = 68345614422a119ad1510d3e570769c8
kefren64# md5 test.iso
MD5 (test.iso) = 93f0c39145f226a78c87ce4455242689
kefren64# md5 test.iso
MD5 (test.iso) = 4c83bbaa1d230c24642dddf5b9a4c9eb
kefren64# ls -lh test.iso
-rw-r--r--  1 kefren  users  4.4G Jan  3 20:24 test.iso
kefren64# mount | grep raid
/dev/raid0a on /disk2 type lfs (local)
kefren64# raidctl -s raid0 | head

I don't suspect any memory/HDD corruption regarding this particular server. 
Also, on the same filesystem it happens that pkgsrc to fail to check the hash 
of a distfile. Removing and re-downloading (from the same site) fixes the 
problem.

Any ideas where to look next ?
