I recently bought a used hard drive (brand name Parity) to use as a backup for my B/W G3. When I tried to copy my files to the new hard drive they all became enlarged, some extremely (like from 24K to 271K). I also noticed that many of the files were the same new size, the most common sizes being 136K, 271K, 542K and 678K. Since there is sort of a mathematical pattern here I thought it might be something obvious but I can't find anyone who has ever heard of such a thing. I'm anxious to solve the problem because if I don't, this new hard drive is pretty worthless since it's already filled up in no time with large files that were previously small. Thanks for any help anyone can offer.
