Hello!
On my iMac 2011 27" with an Western Digital "WDC WD1001FALS-403AA0" (got this one due to the Seagate replacement program) I have very high hard drive activity even without having one single application open.
I use Bootcamp to run Windows 7 and to read the "Windows" partition I use MacFUSE and Tuxera NTFS.
After checking the activity panel for a while I just found out the Mac is reading a lot of stuff.
By using the fs_usage command I found out something interesting: "tuxera.3018" is reading and writing in every single directory on the /Volumes/Windows partition. I really don't know, but it looks to me as if Tuxera is indexing or something.
The Windows partition is formated to the size of 350GB.
Is there something wrong with Tuxera?
Thank you,
Alsher
I have uploaded a .zip with an extract of the fs_usage output
