So I think I finally figured out what’s going on. This bug happens as soon as a Plex client is started on the network, even if no playback or any activity is happening on the client (client completely idle).
On my more recent setup (with 1.19.3.2764), there is a raspberrypi plex that’s always on on that network, and that’s why the writes never ever stop. I was able to reproduce the same behavior with 1.18.2.2058 eventually, I just had to start a client and bingo: constant writes.
Can something be done about this? When the server is running from ssd this is really trashing the drive for no reason and generating needless disk activity in any case.
