: Linkstation LS-WS2.0TL/R1 - No Shutdown link or button
: slovacek February 17, 2016, 03:39:19 PM

I'm trying to find the proper way to shutdown my Linkstation. The manual says there should be a link if you right-click on the unit in NAS Navigator (there's not) and a link if you are in the web interface at the bottom of the left side (there's not).  I am getting a message that Drive 2 needs to be replaced immediately so I want to shut it down (properly) so I can take out the bad drive.  I don't want to brick the unit and lose data on the good drive.  What's the proper way to shut down in the absence of buttons/links that tell the unit to shut down?

Just move the switch to OFF!

Yeah, that switch actually sends a shutdown message, it doesn't just kill power. So it's a graceful shutdown.
