Re: FLAC file errors and integrity

I've had this problem saving files to external USB drives. Tried several different drives and cables, and all different USB ports on 2 different machines with the same results, decompressing with flac frontend would give errors on files randomly. Also had problems with other types of files, like DVDs having some corrupt spots from incomplete or corrupt downloads. And these aren't files that have been sitting around a while, these would be newly downloaded files.

Also, after they finished downloading and started seeding they would stay seeding fine, but if I removed the torrent and tried to open it again later to help seed, the check would only go to about 98 or 99% and would have to re-download some parts. Bottom line for me, I only use internal drives or external firewire drives.

I assume you're talking about an internal drive so I know my story is somewhat irrelevant, but I just thought I'd throw it out there to let you know you're not the only one with corrupt flac files.
