Deleted directories on external disk appears on another external disk
Hello,
I had a directory structure on a external disk. I deleted some directories underneath it,
Like:
Root
--- AA
--------BBB
--- CCC
But now, if I connect my external driver to another computer the directory structure will be on that one (it's doing it by himself) in the above case I see the the directories AA and BBB sometimes only see directory CCC.
Also, when I connect a new external drive to my own computer the directories will be there again,
I thought it could be something to do with caching for the dvd writer, but I don't see files there.
Does someone has any idea where I can look?

you aren't doing a proper dismount before changing external drives.

Ok, but how can I delete this info so it won't be copied over on other external drives?

No old directories copied onto to the attached external (USB) devices by itself.
