Make a file that is about 100 meg. Copy it to another location on the
server. Run a file compare on the two. If you have any differences, you
may have a bad controller for the Hard Drive.
If you don't have a problem, copy the file to a local hard drive and do
the same thing. If you get a difference now, you may have a bad NIC.
If you don't have a problem, copy the file back from your local hard
drive to the server. Try the File compare again. If you you have a
difference, once more look into the NIC for a problem.
This is a down and dirty way to check for very intermittent hardware
problems. I ran across this a couple years ago when we were having data
loss on a single server. Wound up being the hard drive controller. This
was ofcourse AFTER we had a couple network trouble shooters come out and
not find anything wrong...
