Invalid non-string/buffer chunk while writing file on server

See original GitHub issue

While writing file:

Files.write(data,{
        type: 'application/pdf',
        fileName: 'sample.pdf',
        meta: {
          reference: "ref",
          version: 1
        }, function (error, fileRef) {
          if (error) {
            throw error;
          } else {
            console.log(fileRef.name + ' is successfully saved to FS. _id: ' + fileRef._id);
          }
        }
      });

The error “Invalid non-string/buffer chunk” appear with a blank file in the path.
