I have an 'expected' 182 GB of non duplicated data on my pool, but today I have discovered 522 GB of non duplicated data sitting in a '$Recycle.Bin' on this pool. I certainly don't recall having set it up. I was only able to see the '$recycle.bin' by going into the [Pool Options > Folder Duplication] tree. 

 

I have double checked the OS Recycle bin, including system files. I have double checked the Drive letters recycle bin / disk cleanup as well.

 

This pool is built on (5) 6 TB HDD so I checked through each of them and on the HDD that has the most unduplicated data (435 GB) there is a ".covefs" folder which contains a "reparse" folder, none of which report having any size in Windows explorer. There is one other drive with a .covefs > reparse folder tree but the unduplicated data count is massively smaller (50GB).
