Ok, so your SQL box is serving user requests (that is what a Query Server is). It needs the indexes from the box that crawls the content because it serves the user requests. See http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd255990.aspx
How much content are you indexing?

What's surprising is he said files are getting copied at 4mb per second so in 10 minutes there is no space left on server.

He said that index server is copying heaps and heaps of files to sql server box and totally fills up space on sql box. If he shuts off indexing than no files get copied. I don't know any more about this and have to visit them to find what;s going on. Does anyone has any (however vague) idea/pointers as what to check,, does the index server copies search related files to sql box..
