Public bug reported: After a year of usage or so many files on my encrypted hdd are now empty (zero bytes). Since there are many of them in different (random) folders I'm pretty sure I did not empty them myself accidently. SMART values of the drive seem o.k. (5 months usage). I notived that when there are empty files, then the whole directory is affected, so all files in this dir are empty. If you need further details please let me know.
