Hello All,
I'm using 2 external HDD on my laptop under Windows 10.
Both are exactly the same: same brand, same model, same capacity, same format (NTFS). I use 1 for my daily use, the second one as backup which I synchronize frequently with the first one.
However I noticed a difference with some very small files (Java source files) for the used size on the disk.
On my first drive they take 0 byte when on the second they take 4096 bytes.
The "real" size of files is the same (704 bytes), only the space used on the disk differs.
I've tried to delete and copy/paste in both ways but the difference remains and I couldn't find any difference in the details/config of the drives.
Anyone would have an idea to explain this difference of behavior?
