383gb OTHER files ????? What could this be ?


Question

Posted

I have checked other peoples similar issues, and I don't have Shadow Copies enabled, Recycle Bin files, or other files. I have also re-measured. What could be the problem ? See below for screenshots. I use Windows 10 with version 2.3.0.1244 BETA

WinDirStats shows 2.3tb used, so not sure where DrIvePool is getting the extra 0.38tb from ? It is not a system drive, just a storage drive, external 3.5". None of the other 6 hard drives in the same pool show any "other" files. I am not using duplication.

It should be everything outside of the PoolPart folder.

From the user manual.

This includes the disk space occupied by non-pooled files and things such as file system metadata.

Yep, but the problem is there is nothing outside of that, 383gb is a massive amount. Can it be anything else ? I have checked partition software and can't see anything hidden. Also WinDirStat doesn't show anything hidden. I am so stuck.
