Hi
I wonder if anyone can help me here.
I have the above and recently filled it to around 99% and so purchased a 1TB USB disk, which is recognised by the LinkStation and I formatted using the GUI over firefox and I am currently running a back up to it.
However, I use the LinkStation mainly for streaming media to my LinkTheater and yet the LinkTheater cannot see the USB disk at all. All it can see is the original LinkStation.
I had presumed, from what I had read about the LinkStation that connecting a USB disk would present the device as a single disk with the capacity of the two devices together, therefore, my LinkTheater would now see one disk and that would have 1.3TB of storage. Is that not the case and if not, what do I have to do in order to use the new space I have?
Also, I am currently backing up the contents of the LinkStation to the USB drive, but the data rate is appallingly slow - at this rate it is going to take over 130 hours to transfer 290GB, can this be correct?
What I would like it to do is operate as a larger device, e.g. - I should be able to write to it and read from it as if it were one single drive of 1.3TB.
Many thanks for your help.
