So you assigned (m == 4)

gdata34[1, 4] <- gdata[4, 4]


> gdata[1,4] 's real value is 10354, however, the gdata34[1,4] turns to be 883

But now you expect
 gdata[1,4] == gdata34[1,4]

If your loop description is correct,
gdata34[1,4] <- gdata[4, 4]
and
gdata34[1,1] <- gdata[1,4]

Something is wrong either in your description or
your check. I don't think it has anything to do with
storage mode.
