Organization of files
Hi at all,
I need to know if there is available an application, to install on NAS, able to reorganize a folder with thousands of pictures in subfolders by date/time.
Thanks for the support. ...

It can be done through some fairly complex SSH shell commands. You are going to be much better off mapping the drive on a PC and using software that runs there. As long as you are moving between folders, not shares, they can be moved rather than copied and deleted (the latter taking WAY longer). You may need to verify that the software you have chosen is doing that.
The Robocopy command from Windows is another option, but it can be a bit daunting. You don't want to mess up and delete your files.

Thanks for your answer.
The problem is regarding video surveillance... The IP camera (FOSCAM) is able to save just in one folder on NAS, so I will have thousands of pictures. When I try to connect with windows explorer to the storage folder of the IP camera, the system is very slow to load the preview of the images. But the NAS is the only one "clever" system always switched ON.
Do you have some other suggestion how to avoid this kind of problem?
