Hi.
I recently upgraded my empeg's HD to a nice 60GB disc. However: While the player seems to run fine, I took it inside for a few uploads and sync is _SLOW_ to say the least. I expected the fs checks to be much slower than with the previous disc, but there seems to be an additional problem, which I noticed on the log when connected by serial during a sync:

This does not look normal to me, but what exactly might this mean? The sector on which the error occures is different on each occasion. But the pattern is always the same.
Any hint would be appreciated.
