That sounds like it's a hardware issue. It may be that the controller
did something insane while trying to do a write at the point when the
disk drive was disconnected (and so the drive suffered a power drop).

The way to snapshot just the metadata blocks for analysis is:
e2image -r /dev/hdc4 | bzip2 > ~/hdc4.e2i.bz2
But in this case, it's I doubt it will be very helpful, because
fundamentally, this appears to be a hardware issue.
