I had this, I switched off file duplication, restarted the server then turned it back on. The error went for me

Hi -
I've done a lot of googling on this topic but don't have a clear explanation for what is happening. I have my mp3 collection residing on the Music share on the server with file duplication turned on. Everything was a-ok for over a month, until a few days ago when an alert informed me that one of the mp3's had a file conflict. I went out to the share and noticed the file is still there, but the filesize is very small, a few kb's instead of the 2 or 3 MBs the mp3 used to be. Some articles seemed to indicate a problem with one of the harddisks that a chkdsk could possibly fix - but with file duplication turned on, wouldn't that mean a copy of the file is on another disk and therefore intact? How do I recover this file? If you need more information or logs of some sort please let me know - this is my first posting and I'm not sure what folks would need to help me.
[EDIT] I've got some more info to add which may help. The error that is displaying when I click on the Details button of the Home Network Health screen is "The file cannot be accessed by the system".
Thanks,
Eric
Sometimes just restarting the server will clear the conflict also....

I agree with Gordon, turn duplication off on that folder for 12-24 hours and let the server balance. Then turn it back on and you should be fine
