mkfs.xfs actually does writes out at the end of the device and verifies
them; I'm not sure ext3 is doing the same. You may find yourself in
trouble on ext3 post-mkfs (or you may not...) I seem to recall that xfs
has shaken out similar problems on other block devices for this reason.
I'd do some simple device-level read/write tests around 2GB just for
fun, see how it goes.
