Yeah, I agree with Scott; it sounds like fsync() is being shorted somewhere in the I/O path. Are you using a RAID controller; if so is the cache setting — write through or write back? If it’s write back then writes are being cached and a power outage will lead to data corruption — the only saving grace at that point would be the battery backup logic on the controller which may or nay not be trustworthy.
