Hi Eugene, just thought i throw in my experience also.
I once had similar issues. Hash errors solved by multiple tries. Safe_sync was helping a little but the error still remained. In my case one of the two RAM sticks was faulty (memtest was spilling red all over the place LOL). Began after around 6-8 months after purchase and i needed 3-4 months until i finally found the cause.
