SUMMARY: Disk failure?

Hi people,
Thanks to everyone who helped me. And to all of them to made me jealous of
them being on Holidays...
Anyhow, The one who got it was Thomas Carter, but everyone helped with good
insights.

I ran a format->analyze->read on the disk and it stops the errors, but the
machine is still slow, and is giving me errors on the controller, so I kept
checking and found that the controller is faster than the disks in use, so
seems that it times out waiting for the disks to come back, and that causes
some of the errors, this only happens with big files (as it hits the disk
quite hard). So a combination of both was creating the issue.

I will try to get the controller changed and if the disk keep giving me
problems as well... right now, a new (more frequent) backup is being run.

Thanks to everyone, you can check the emails below.

Regards,

Pablo.-

the bad block is further in the disk than you normally use.
