Close please.

The 17G was from trying to blank the drive, which for some reason 
disconnected in the process resulting in a file written in /dev with the 
name sda. From there on the loop and so on. So there was a /dev/sda file 
as a left-over after that. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction 
and apologies.

I am going to continue investigating why I got the data corruption in 
the first place, before I tried to blank it, but it looks like it may 
have been a hardware issue with the original USB-to-ATA bridge.
