Josie,
Hello!
Looking at your problem, it appears to me that you could be looking at some
disk corruption. The best place to start would be the Event logs and see
if:-
1. You see any corruption or hardware errors
2. Did the backups actually complete successfully?
3. Is the database corrupt? (Run checkdb)
With SQL Server backups, we usually have commands such as RESTORE
VERIFYONLY and RESTORE HEADERONLY to verify the state of a backup device. A
backup can be deemed as successful only after it's been fully restored, and
a checkdb is run on it.
I'd suggest you look at the event logs, and maybe get your hardware vendors
engaged as well. Have you tried backing up the db to another drive?
