[-- Attachment #1 --] Hi Doug Thanks a lot for your answer.

Seems like it's really a hardware problem. We are currently restoring to another machine/disk and hopefully this will do the trick. Unfortunately we are not yet able to move to 6.3 (or even 7.0) because of a third party application which runs on this server and which does only support 6.2 atm.
