June 19, 201313 yr I just noticed a strange file in the root of all of my disk shares. The file is XXfillerXX.13264 and is 1.82 Gb in size although a couple instances are a bit smaller. There were none there a few days ago, but now it is on all 18 disks and they all show a creation date of this past Friday night. Anybody ever see anything like this or have any ideas what it may be? Google is not turning up anything.
June 19, 201313 yr Did you look in your syslog and see if there is anything out of the ordinary that happened around the time the file was created?

Google is not turning up anything. Did you run the "disk-speed" test script recently posted? (I'll bet you did.) That sounds like the names of the file it creates to test the speed of writing to and reading from your disks. You may remove those files if you are done testing.

I didn't realize it would create and leave a file on the disks. Maybe I just didn't read about it thoroughly enough. Thanks so much! I'm glad to know nothing funky was going on.
