Mysql 5.0.95 table keeps getting corrupted

I have a server that has been running for years without issue. The core of the application using a single table that has about 700k records. Over the last few months I've seen the machine off and all of a sudden having huge IO waits ( > 50% ) and "show processlist" has 10's of requests locked. sar -b reports 200k bread/s !

I have dropped the table and reloaded it several times. I have repaired the table several times. The problem usually goes away for a day or a week and then shows up again.

At some level I have ruled out the application. The query and update mix is identical on a good day or a bad one.

This machine is never rebooted and mysqld never appears to have restarted or crashed. I can believe it could be mysqld corrupting itself, right? 5.0.95 is pretty hardened by this point yes?

I really believe it is a hardware problem with bad blocks or something but I have yet to prove it.

Any advice on how to narrow in on the issue?
