I reinstalled .441 on Saturday and created a cloud drive using Google Drive. I added the cloud drive to my drive pool and used file placement and duplication rules to put a fourth copy of data that is stored locally on three separate drives on to the cloud drive. Configured this way, about 60 GB of data uploaded to the cloud that night. However, ever since the data was uploaded CloudDrive indicates that it is downloading from the cloud at a constant rate of about 6-15 Mbits/s using one thread. It never stops and has been constant for the past 36 hours or so. Beyond the issue of perpetual bandwidth use, this situation appears to be preventing my local drives that hold copies of the same data duplicated on the cloud drive from spinning down (confirmed via scanner). The local drives just keep getting pulses of activity every few seconds.
My question is whether this is a (somewhat) temporary situation involving verification of the integrity of the data on the cloud drive and will stop once all of the data has been verified. If not, what do I need to do to stop the continuous downloads so that my local drives can spin down?
