Hello Reese,

I'm doing a "newfs_udf -r 2.50 /dev/disk1" where disk1 is my BD device 
containing a BD-RE (rewritable Blu-Ray disc) and use Finder and command line 
tools to copy, remove and replace files on the disc.
Spotlight and fseventsd work immediately on the disc after (auto) mounting 
which is imho bad practice and I also don't want to write files to discs to 
disable OS specific services. This behavior should be disabled by default for 
optical and flash devices.
You are right, you can disable the indexer alone but this would render 
Spotlight quite useless.

thanks for your answer and looking into this,
O.
