Hello!
Yes you are right. For some reason i was thinking only random bytes for padding.

That would destroy any dedup service if different random bytes are appended. 
Even if the same number of random bytes are appended for equivalent encryption

Hello, Iraklis! Good to hear from you.

Let's make all pad bytes be "0" before encryption. They will be
encrypted along with the file bytes.

Therefore, as long as the same number of padding bytes are appended
whenever the encryption key is the same, then the dedup (convergent
encryption) property is preserved.

Right?
