I've been having similar problems, except that mine are more consistent.
Specifically, whenever I try to copy a file that's more than about 100K
either to or from my Jasmine Megadrive 10 (or both, by doing the
"Duplicate" command in the Finder), I get the disk error message.  The
same files can be copied using a disk copying utility (a DA).  I never
experienced this problem prior to System 6.0.5.
