XR700 Readyshare is mounting the wrong drive image with 2 drives in use
So tonight I installed a new XR700. All working fine, except I use 2 drives via USB as a NAS. The drives work fine when they are plugged in separately, just using 2 drives at once is giving me is...
I've not seen anyone have this issue before. Do both drives work as NAS or does it appear to just be an issue with the table view on the storage page showing the wrong information? Do values for each change for example if you do something on USB 2?
No when I attach both drives then both shares show the data of drive 1, even if drive 1 and 2 are named separately.
Ie it will detect drive 1 as drive 1 and drive 2 as drive 2 by name/volume name. But the data for drive 2 is actually coming off drive 1.
This is what happens after inserting both drives:
NAS 1NAS 2So it does recognize both drives. But look at 'Free Space' it mounts the image on drive 1 as drive 2. So when I go to the NAS from my PC it shows 2 shares that both have the same files, off drive 1.
Pics didn't work, 2nd attempt:
NAS 1NAS 2
Uploading doesn't seem to work.
But in short, it's not just a text error, I do get 2 shares which are both drive 1, and can't get into drive 2 from PC.
