Are you sure the raid is clean? If it's not you can get bizarre behavior like this depending on which side of it any given read is serviced from. (That is: any given fsck run will see some of one version and some of the other and make some changes, which may or may not be consistent with what it sees the next time, and it all might converge or might not...) -- David A.
