I probably won't be able to reproduce this anytime soon, but some directories entirely disappeared from my drive. I think they were files in the upload queue, but I can't be sure. I had 1TB+ in the upload queue this morning before I got API banned with around 600GB left. It's been sitting at this for a while now until the upload can resume, but I was just accessing a few directories here and there, and found that some folders were completely missing. I know every folder was present when I first completed the file transfer (not upload) because I checked the properties of the entire directory against the properties of the original source and they had the same size and number of folders/files.
I'm not going to have this much in queue any time soon so it's going to be rather difficult to replicate.
EDIT
I've been rescanning my library in plex every day and I keep seeing random files disappearing. 4 episodes from one season of a show, the first episode of a season of another show, 3 entire seasons of another show, etc. I confirmed the total number of files copied immediately after copying, so somewhere in the time it's sitting in the upload queue to when it finally gets uploaded, files are getting deleted.
EDIT 2 I sent in a file system log. I know the instructions say "It is important that you perform this step and perform it quickly after reproducing the issue" but as I don't know what triggers the issue or when it happens, my only choice was to leave it running for a while. Hopefully it captures something that catches your eye. I've had a handful of files disappear again today as well.
EDIT 3
Just adding that I know for a fact it's not just files in the upload queue anymore. Some of the ones that disappeared were from my first batch which I didn't only copy over, but also let upload completely before verifying that I had the same number of files as the original.
