Well, unfortunately it seems the piece scan never ends. It has been running for a month. Since the machine reboots once per month by Updates, it will never complete its job. The HDD is having hard time being 100% utilization constantly, it is the warmest HDD I have running, and by the sound and vibrations I can see it is doing seek, the heads skipping from one part of the plate to another all the time, it may significantly shorten the HDD life. All after all, I decided to shut down the node and repurpose the disk…
From other discussions here I would say the filewalker needs to be reworked, make it work different way, at least on windows, how it access all the millions of tiny files.
I know storj recommends Linux, but I’m fixed on Windows and I’m using what I already have.
