I have 2 hard drives with the same content and size. But after a few days later I open drivepool, it shows the 2 harddrive not consistent. 2 of the folder contents do not match. So I compared the folder for both drives and their size are different.

  1. How does this happen?

  2. Does this mean I have corrupted files?

  3. Does smaller size of files indicate corruption?

  4. Is this normal?
