Are you running Windows? It's sounding more and more like a system problem, like you're getting bad writes to the drive.

My computer is a late 2009 model Apple Mac Mini running Apple OS 10.6.4 (Snow Leopard).
I use calibre with the default setup, where the calibre library/database file structure occurs in my user folder on my hard drive. aka /user/calibre_library would be the appropriate path.
When I export/"Save to Disk", I do it for the purpose of creating a backup elsewhere in my system, which happens to be to an external terabyte hard drive made by LaCie, manufactured I don't know when but purchased in March of this year. I have yet to do anything with those exports/backups/saves, so do not know if anything gets corrupted or not when it is saved to external storage.
All that said, I agree that it sounds like something is getting corrupted in some manner. But that's a guess.
