Thank you, Gary, I'll have a deeper look later and let you guys know what I'll have found out. This far, I can tell that all folders on the encrypted drive need (between fairly and significantly) more disc space, the above one (with an extensive amount of subfolders and small files) being an extreme example.
Hello there ... Just encountered that a 192 MB folder which I copied to my veracrypt-encrypted drive, uses 11.8 GB on there (see attached screenshot). I understand that disk sizes of folders with many subfolders in them are slightly higher, but more than 60 times higher seems weird, doesn't it? On the original (NTFS-)disk, the same folder uses 227 MB (1.2 times higher). What am I doing wrong? (1,4 TB USB drive / exFAT / Serpent / Normal) Thanks alot - 0range
