Home Forums SQL Server 2008 Data Corruption (SS2K8 / SS2K8 R2) RESTORE DATABASE FAILS with Write on "???" failed: 1117(The request could not be performed because of an I/O device error.) RE: RESTORE DATABASE FAILS with Write on "???" failed: 1117(The request could not be performed because of an I/O device error.)

  • Don't think so. The first error is an I/O subsystem error, surfaced when the I/O system doesn't respond correctly.

    The backup error would surface differently as a failure to read from offset xxxx in the backup file.
