That would likely happen if there were read errors on the physical
media.  (Which would happen for sure on lots of copy protected
disks.)  The recovery from timeout isn't nearly graceful as it needs
to be, that's for sure.  But I think you'd likely end up with an
unusable disk anyway.  What is it you're trying to move, exactly?
