I am reporting this from Debian Wheezy/Testing but this also happens when using Squeeze's backported 2.6.38 kernel. It even occurs with Squeezes 2.6.32 main stable kernel! It gives
the same or similar errror whether I do it via the CLI or the GNOME UI. I also tried with superuser privileges.

I think that this error causes certain files to not be copied. Reading this Ubuntu thread (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1500384) leads me to believe that it's an issue
with external drives in general or using ext4. I tried copying using the GNOME UI with the "Skip all" option when confronted with the error and I ended up with certain files missing.
There are many more threads from the looks of it: http://www.scroogle.org/cgi-bin/nbbw.cgi?Gw=Error+splicing+file%3A+Input%2Foutput+error

If more information is needed or if you want me to do some additional testing, just ask.

P.S.
I also think it's likely that this bug carries through to newer kernels than the one I am filing the bug for but I am filing it for this version since this is the latest version that
I have tested since the most recent Linux distro I run is Debian Wheezy/Testing.

I was actually referring to the manufacturer's diagnostic program, which
should be available from
<http://support.wdc.com/product/download.asp?wdc_lang=en&fid=wdsfMyPassport_Essential_SE>.

Anyway, this tool seems to have detected new bad sectors.  So this is a
hardware fault and not a bug.

This is normal behaviour if there is localised damage to a disk surface
rather than to a head or motor.

I think you can get a replacement with just the serial number:
