First, thank you very much for your interesting responses.
Yesterday in the evening I installed OpenBSD again on the same disk,
just to be sure if I could reproduce the errors. Yes!, I did not have to
wait for a long time. The errors appeared after some hours of use. I
installed the ports tree and run the locate.updateb command, just for
moving disk heads. Also added some audio files just to fill the disk space.
Yesterday night, there were only two corrupted files, inmediately after
the install:
/usr/libdata/perl5/AnyDBM_File.pm and
/usr/libdata/perl5/Attribute
That files disapeared:
# pwd
/usr/libdata/perl5
# ls A*
ls: AnyDBM_File.pm: Bad file descriptor
ls: Attribute: Bad file descriptor
AutoLoader.pm AutoSplit.pm
Today morning, the errors count rised exponentialy. I even could record
this errors:

Here comes the fsck output full of errors. It seems that the filesystem
gets corrupted quicker as the hard disk reaches its maxim capacity.
Even the system is unable to do a clean "halt". It starts the "ddb".

I am going to open the box and change the cables just to see. After
that, I will throw my disk away trought the window. I have 2 OpenBSD
installs on other 2 computers, of course without errors.
Many thanks for your time.
