Please note, that I didn't dive deep into the problem, or something 
like, basically I was mere user.

I had two disks, for which I applied LVM. After disk crash I ended up 
with data corrupted not only from the disk which was crashed, but 
also at surving disk as well (I knew this by size of the intact 
files, and the size of the files I lost due to corruption).

Maybe it was me who misconfigured something, but maybe LVM (at the 
time) spanned files across partitions (in theory it should not do 
this). I didn't investigate it futher, after that I stopped using LVM 
and in time the need for it decreased (because HDD were getting 
bigger).

Kind regards,
