I would like to suggest a new Zip verify method that verify that the disk/ssd containing the Zip is error free. Thanks

How do you imagine this? So if I run verification on an 8 kilobyte ZIP file on an 8 terabyte drive, I'll have to wait several hours for the verification to complete?
Maybe just download and run some hard drive testing software?
Note that if the disk is OK where the ZIP file is located, the file passes verification. If the disk is damaged at that location, the ZIP file will fail verification. If disk errors occur elsewhere, you must scan the entire disk!
