   Are you using an external hard drive?

   You might want to check your hardware for defects.

   • memtest86 to check your RAM
   • to check the CPU behaviour under load, use linpack or Prime95
   • to test your storage device use smartctl or CrystalDiskInfo

   Yes, this is most likely a local software or hardware issue resulting in disk corruption. bitcoind unfortunately has the nack of turning these up due to heavy I/O and CPU use.
