Writing to USB Disk 1 (connected via USB)
« on: May 10, 2012, 09:13:23 AM »

 

Can you write to USB Disk 1 (2TB HDD) --- external WD HDD plugged in to thr back of the LS-XHL

 

External HDD is NTFS    (manual says Read only??????? wierd but options other wise).

 

In the folder permissions I have it as read/write

 

Firmware is 1.58

 

Any workarounds

 

thanks

NTFS is read only, if you want read/write access you need to format the HDD to FAT32 or XFS via the web admin page.

PM me for TFTP / Boot Images / Recovery files  LSRecovery.exe file.
Having network issues? Drop me an email: info@interwebnetworks.com and we will get it fixed!

Is Buffalo going to allow NTFS to be read/write eg. with linux software available to do it!!!

 

In a future firmware upgrade!!!!
