Well, it appears you may be right. 

I'd got all the data off that 3T with no read failures, and then remade
the filesystem.

I had to use -f because it saw the old one, but I don't know if that's
pertinent here or not.

Anyroad, I made the new filesystem, with whatever mkfs.xfs's defaults are
for a 3T filesystem in 3.1.11, and then started rsyncing the 2TB drive onto
it, so I could fix that one.

Got 88GB in, and did the same thing:

Followed by the obligatory:

a lot.

I'll try swapping it; this mobo has always gotten whacky if we went over 512M,
which is why we haven't. 

I don't know if I can manually reclock the ram, though I might can turn the 
waitstates up.

Well, I can live without HDMI, but my present MS-7021 mobo has 5 PCI
slots, and I'm using all of them: 2 PVR-150s, a PVR-500, and a SiI
4-port raid (which will talk to 2 and 3TB drives; the motherboard SATA
won't even see them).

I forget what's in 5, but I think it was the only VGA card I had with
S-Video out.

So, while that's a damn nice price point, it will require me to buy
a bunch of Ethernet tuners as well.  <sigh>

I'll try the RAM.  It's really odd, though, that the badblocks workload 
and both memtests couldn't find a problem, if it is the memory plane...
