RANT: Corrupted jpegs

This is more of a rant than a request for assistance but if you have any solutions to offer please do 🙂

It just so happens that my pr0n folder is on a RAID mirrored disk on a Solaris/SPARC box (hey, if you have the technology and the know-how...). The directory structure, among others, is exported out via Samba to my Windows systems. But now for some reason I'm occasionally seeing JPEGs popping up corrupted--no thumbnail, 0 bytes 🙁

I'm wondering if it's a Samba weakness. But in any case, it kinda sucks to think that an enterprise-level data redundancy solution is still susceptible to random bit-flips. 😕

I want my pr0n protected, dammit 😀

EDIT: Turns out I was wrong. It's on an XP box and I'm losing myself in all these Explorer windows simultaneously open.
 
Clearly I'm losing my mind (or have too many boxes)... the folder I was looking at is actually on a WinXP server, not Solaris. So Samba is definitely out. Doesn't change the fact that I'm still looking for a jpeg repair utility tho.

These jpegs are actually from cleaning off an old 2gb disk that was in my first P100 box... it's hilarious, its all stuff from the dialup days circa '96, 320x200 and super grainy and whatnot. 😛
