Hey, this is very late but I had the same issue. I mounted some NTFS drives and it didn’t work. The reason was because hdd_use_direct_io was set to true. The solution was setting it to false. I guess it just doesn’t like directly reading from mounted drives? Either way, it works now.

Thank you for your suggestion!!! I will give it a try within the next couple of days and report if it solves this problem.

Hi, Linux NTFS drivers do not support direct i/o. For best performance, use a linux filesystem on linux and a windows filesystem on windows. Any mix is likely to degrade performance.

setting hdd_use_direct_io to "false" has solved this problem. scavenger is now working on my nvidia jetson nano even if i use a mixture of ubuntu os and ntfs external drives.
