And users computer screen shows the error: Page errors on the GAM and after that users try to mount SQL database to Server again which might put the user in an erroneous situation flashing error: "Page errors on the GAM, SGAM, or PFS pages do not allow CHECKALLOC to verify database ID DB_ID pages from P_ID1 to P_ID2. See other errors for cause."

Any of these corruption reasons might destruct GAM, PFS, or SGAM pages that are related to SQL Server Meta information and structure.
