This is weird. RMAN cannot be "super-sensitve" to anything ("really soft"--whatever that is--or otherwise). Either its I/O calls fail or they don't. I don't doubt it when you say "all is now good", but the relief likely does not come from swapping out drives that are suffering soft errors.  

Golly is support getting spammy these days or what?
