So apparently windowses "mirror drive" functionality is garbage. It is supposed to work like raid 1 and write data to two partitions simultaneously, but instead it randomly selects a drive and then proceeds to copy over the whole more recent drive image onto the older one daily at 3 am, thus writing a terrabyte of data to one of my drives daily. Thanks Microsoft!

    Of course its windows. Now that thats out of my system. The word mirror should have tipped you off on that. usually when you mirror drives it is a full copy. Sync is copying changed files
