If I see the words "IBM" and "disk" together, they are usually
accompanied with the work "problem".  I've had too many IBM disks,
most of them have failed.  I spent a month trying to make an xp (ick)
system stable - all problems went away the day when I replaced the
IBM disk with something else (but only after the disk got so bad the
ssytem didn't even boot up).

These sound like disk problems to me.. the disk can't read some blocks.

Take the disks, find a deep spot at the sea and drop the disks there.

(Sorry, but I'm fed up with the so-called quality of the IBM disks.)
