Storage / Re: Wndows 11 is an existentia...
Last post by Kane88 - March 14, 2026, 01:48:24 PMMake sure you have SMB 1.0 and 1.1 enabled. Windows 11 updates should not affect your linkstation itself. You may need to access it using another machine or by using a virtual machine with something like oracle virtual box that is free.
See here to enable SMB 1.x and 2.0 The Linkstation 210D uses SMB 1.x by default, it also supports 2.0 but I think it is off by default, I don't remember.

Storage / Can't Access ls210DA0C
Last post by KevinPar - March 07, 2026, 11:35:07 AMI can see the LS210DA0C in NAS Navigator2, including the IP address. However, clicking Browse in Navigator doesn't open an Explorer window, or cause anything else to happen. I can't access it by name or IP address. I was previously able to access it and copy files to it, so I know the Share folder is set up. My computer is Windows 11 with all available updates. Turning off my computer's filewall (Norton) doesn't make any difference and the LS210DA0C is still inaccessible. What do I need to do to have it work like it should?

Last post by was698002 - February 18, 2026, 08:48:46 AMI have had 2 link Stations since win98, 1 backing up to the other. 1 died and I replaced it with new ls210d. Win 11 updated itself the middle of the night and now I can't access my Link Station. Windows says I don't have permission and won't accept any password or identity that I can think of. This is unacceptable and makes the nas useless. About ready to pull the disk.

Last post by jbrown08322 - February 17, 2026, 07:54:46 AMI just updated my TeraStation firmware to 6.08-0.17. Included a new OAuth for Microsoft Account feature. The setup goes through all the motions, but I never get a confirm email nor can I send a test.
Anyone else got this to work?

Storage / Cannot Delte empty folders Ter...
Last post by videoed - February 11, 2026, 07:03:52 PMReposting from 2024. I have several terastastion TS-XL with firm ware 1.75. On two of the units I am experiencing a strange behaviour with several folders on two of the drives, seven in total 2 units. I cannot delete the folders. I can copy files and folders into them and the new ones will delete but when I try to delete the "stuck" folder the files inside are deleted but not the folder itself. No error messages at all. Tried with several file managers all with same result. Tried on a PC with Win 11 and one with windows 10. I have also tried using CMD prompt do delete the folders but it returns a folder not empty. Is there a utility or such that can directly access the files and folders on a Terastation TS-XL, or any idea how to delete the folders. Each unit is set up with 4 2TB hard drives as just drives, not raids. I know this is not killer, but it would be nice to clean them up.
Thanks for any help.
Esa.

Storage / LS520D RAID rebuilding randoml...
Last post by sicarumba - February 10, 2026, 07:46:30 AMHi all
I have an LS520D NAS and it seems to like rebuilding the RAID for no apparent reason. It probably happens every 5 or 6 weeks, no other alerts or obvious symptoms. I only noticed because I caught sight of the flashing red LED.
Originally it had a pair of 2TB drives, after the second one failed I took the opportunity to upgrade them both to 4TB. I backed all my data up, destroyed the 2TB RAID, replaced the drives, formatted them and created a new RAID. I then restored all my data manually. I don't know that this rebuilding thing definitely wasn't happening before I upgraded the drives since I previously had the NAS positioned such that I couldn't see the LED, I moved it when I upgraded. I can't see anything in the SMART info which would suggest one drive is vastly different to the other, though I admit I don't fully understand most of the information I am seeing. These are my current values :

Storage / Re: LS220 transfer speeds
Last post by StrikerTheHedgefox - February 08, 2026, 05:37:04 PMAnyone have any solutions? One extra bit of information: When the transfer speeds slow down, the webUI also slows down, so accessing settings becomes next to impossible to use. Again, restarting the NAS fixes it for a few hours, then it slows down again.

Storage / Direct Connect TS1200 Nas to ...
Last post by RiderzReady - January 26, 2026, 06:46:44 PMTried Google till I am blue in the face and still not sure if this is or is not possible.
I have a TS1200 NAS external drive. My new location I am on a shared wireless internet service and no longer have a internet modem. Can I attach the DS1200 drive directly to my PC (Windows) ethernet port to get files off from it? I also still have my Linksys router but not been able to set it up to use the TS1200. Many thx in advance.

Last post by MymsMan - January 18, 2026, 05:38:43 PMWindows is only showing you the NAS as a media server but that doesn't stop you from actually connecting to the NAS using the manual method I listed.
You only need to create the Network locations once and they persist
I have given up trying to understand the vagaries of Network location on Windows!
