I'm guessing its just a coincident.. As far as I know, seeds have nothing to do with where the data should be located. I think there could be couple of reasons why you wouldn't see SSTables on a specific column family folder, these are some of them: - You're using a few distinct keys which non of them should be on that seed node. - Node hasn't flushed yet.. You can use nodetool flush to try and flush memtables manually. - You're using manual token assignment and you didn't not assign them well.
