This has nothing to do with how Drive Extender's Duplication. This has to do with the same files in more than one location, duplicate files. Windows Home Server does not prevent this from happening and nor does DupeCleaner. However, you can search for existing duplicates and clean them using DupeCleaner. In a future version I have been planning for a while, I will add an option to replace all but on duplicate with a pointer to the real file. This will cut the storage size down and not mess with reason behind non-accidental duplicates. I also plan on decreasing the time it takes to serach through data, limiting the need for hashing all files. @Kent:

I was under the impression that WHS does not store duplicate information twice, but just adds a pointer to the existing data.Or, does the Single-instance storage only apply to PC backups and not shares?
