By removing the riser card I can no longer easily reproduce
the corruption but colleagues said it's still reproduceable
even without the riser card.  I'm doing more testing now,
but so far I couldn't reproduce it.  I tried several riser
cards, two different models, the issue is still the same;
reading 10 sectors gives one bit error (MSB bit) at one
byte.  Do you have experience why using riser cards may be
a bad idea?
