Actually OP didn't exaggerate. The disk is brand new (as I bought it)

I wonder why the disk gave these results and I think it might be the
less than perfect power supply of the box where I was trying it, but I
don't really know what could have caused it.

defect in the drive, as is pointed out by several responses posted
to comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware
