Hello, I just purchased a pre-formatted ex hd. I shipped to a friend who dumped some files on it for me. Anyway when I got it back there are many strange files. My friend created one folder with his music and there are about 30 other files that have a similar sequential naming system these files are named ~bittesto0069 ~bittesto0070 etc. What is this junk and can I delete theme with no problems? They are too bib to open with notepad and I guess that there is nothing in them that would make any sense to me.
