    Sudden Decrease in Disk Space

    Hi everyone,

    One day when i tried to access my server, the disk space used had up from about 40 gb to about 100gb. I did not save any files prior to it spiking up. What could be the problem? The Server contains 2 harddrive which are both 115 gbs, and both are now down to about 4.87 gb of space left (from about ~80gb left on each).

    Could this be a virus? or am i not seeing something here?

    Any help on this issue is appreciated.

    I had something similar happned to where all my files duplicated themselves some triplicated. i would go check in my compute under your drive and see if you see duplicate folders. dont know if a virus caused it or what, but a sstem restore (1 month before the problem) took care of it. i dont know if it was caused bye a virus or what. also run a check disk and see if part so fyour hard drive went corrupt. also are they SCSI, or ATA, or SATA
