Very unlikely. Rare bitwise errors like yours are more likely caused by
i.e. broken IDE cable or too fast an IDE-controller setting for the
cable / drive. Or memory error. Or an itch on the mainboard. or++
Interrupt errors would cause errors blockwisely.
like whole sectors of data missing, device not working....
