It shouldn't make a difference if it's ext2 vs. ext3. The drive in the case now used to be used in my carrier system so it was directly connected via IDE.
What's odd is that fdisk shows it with FAR less capacity:
Disk /dev/sda: 1624 MB, 1624670208 bytes 16 heads, 63 sectors/track, 3148 cylinders Units = cylinders of 1008 * 512 = 516096 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sda2 * 1 232581 117220792+ 83 Linux
This is a 160G drive. What's also strange is it's showing the capacity as 1.6G, which is co-incidentally the size of the old IDE disk I was using for testing earlier.
The file system DOES mount and I can get into it but if I try to access any file on it I get those errors.

I see you're using EXT3. Have you tried it with EXT2? I've had troubles with mixing newer journalling and older filesystems and late 2.4 kernels (e.g. when I had four partitions on a disk and I told my system to format partition 2 as a swap partition, it formatted both partitions 2 and 3 for no apparent reason...)
