Was Bacula running with spooling enabled?  If so, then the spool disk might
have been faulty.

Was Bacula running multiple concurrent jobs?  There were bugs with that in
some versions of Bacula.

Have you tried something like smartctl (from smartmontools) to see if the
drive has recorded any errors in the past?
