I would suggest that Andrei might try to write and clear the IO

offset. You can use Mark Lord's hdparm to clear a specific sector
..
[90318.370625] end_request: I/O error, dev sdb, sector 1953519935
..
I suggest you try this:
hdparm --read-sector 1953519935 /dev/sdb
If that succeeds, then the sector is good at the drive.
But *If* it fails, then you could check the syslog to ensure
that it didn't fail for some weird reason, and then *fix* it:
hdparm --write-sector 1953519935 /dev/sdb
This is very different from how 'dd' does writes.
