My Stuff: Buffalo TeraStation ES 2.0TB NAS (TS-XE2.0TL/R5) firmware: 1.30-213 Gigabit Ethernet with Jumbo Frame (4KB). Organized as a single RAID5 volume.
Copied info from several PCs to consolidate on TeraStation. Management wants to break down a large shared folder into several smaller folders so data from current subfolders is more accessible. On a PC or Windows Server, I would simply MOVE the folder from its current sub-folder location to a new Root folder. Is there a way on the TeraStation to MOVE data from one shared folder to another shared folder, or do I have to re-copy data via the Gigabit Ethernet?
If I can't MOVE the sub-folder contents to a different shared folder on the same TeraStation, rather than using a network PC to copy from one folder to another, would it be faster to add an external USB drive to the TeraStation and copy to/from that?
If this question has already been discussed/answered elsewhere, please provide pointers, and sorry about the duplication!
