I observed such behaviour a couple months ago.  I:

(a) stopped using scache; and
(b) got a drive-cleaning kit and cleaned the drives

and the problem went away.  Being a lazy sod, I haven't investigated since to
see if (a) had anything to do with it.  I suspect (b) is sufficient both because
I trust Moshe's code and because no-one else seems to have noticed problems
with scache.  (Haven't bothered to put SCACHE back because it doesn't seem
to work with my DS disks, only with SS, and having come up in the world I
don't use many SS disks any more.)
