The problem was a faulty SSD in a RAID10 set of four.  It was
returning corrupted data and reporting it as good data.  The faulty
drive has been removed from the array.  All of the systems have been
booted back up and are online again.

Data being written was being written to both good and bad drives.
Data read was interlaced between the good and bad drives.  That is why
the read data being accessed would sometimes have corruption.  By
removing the corrupting drive it is believed that all of the data on
the remaining good drive is okay.
