Could these users be connected in some way?
Same class, a group of some sort..

I've seen pupils download huge amounts of data if the teacher isn't in
100% control. This gets popular with others nearby, and they download
the same file. Could be something popular, like a game or some music.

Have you tried to play it as a music cd? Sound or just noise? Could be a
music collection.
.raw is another name for .iso files, meant to be burnt on cd.

Just a guess or two.
