Have you confirmed that you can write to the drive from a PC?
What format is the flash drive?
Hi tomiaurednik,
If you will change the destination via USB port destination (front/back), will that make a difference? Also, test with another USB storage device and see how it goes.
Kind regards,

NETGEAR Community TeamHI,
I can w/r to USB from PC (connect USB directly to PC).
It's NTFS file system
It seems that the problems ware, because it was not a safe remove from NAS. I Repaired on windows, now works.
