I have an external HD formatted to default HFS (Mac OS Extended - Journaled) and very once and a while I get a folder called DamagedFiles in the root of the volume. The folder contains a collection of links to files on the drive. In general the files seem fine as I am for example able to open the images or text files without a problem.
Is this serious? What can I do to fix this problem? Any advice would be great as I couldn't find anything on here or via Google that addressed this problem in particular.
Many thanks.
There doesn't seem to be any data loss. I am able to verify and repair the disk using Disk Utility without any errors or further problems.
Does Disk Utility do the same thing, or even use fsck to do the disk repair?
Thanks! – dtlussier – 2010-03-18T14:30:18.517
