I have all my music recorded as WAV files on my hard drive, currently taking up slightly over 63GB (and correctly reported as such by "du -ms /music/wav". The size of each file averages 45MB, although of course there are a dozen or soo 200MB monsters. Also, sharing the files via Samba to a Windows 2000 computer was working fine.
As a follow-up to my own post (sorry!), I have rebooted the machine to install a new up2date kernel, and the disk check for my /music drive showed "95.8% non-contiguous files". I have never seen anything higher than 2% before! However, it reports as clean and the problem I see has not gone away after having fsck'ed the disk.
And as a third follow-up (just keeping y'all up to date), I have attempted to "cp --sparse=always x.wav y.wav" as well as "rsync --sparse x.wav y.wav" and both of the resulting destination files exhibit the same behavior.
This is getting very frustrating.
