Access external connected USB drive NAS 104
ReadyNas 104 - Fireware 6.5.1 I've connected USB drive. Is there a way to access the drive like a i-SCSI drive i.e. upload and view drive contents without having to access USB drive via brows...
Finally found the solution I was looking for. Thanks to all, who assisted me, to find a solution.
Thank you for reply.
Progress has been made with Windows 10 tablet see below. The problem remains the password. When I type the characters nothing appears on screen. The cursor remains in a static positon. WHAT is the syntax to add password to the net use \\192.168.1.65\USB_HDD_2 /user:admin for example net use \\192.168.1.65\USB_HDD_2 /user:admin /password:*****
The password I use is the same one I use to log on through the browser to ReadyNAS.

Enter the password for 'admin' to connect to '192.168.1.65':
The password is invalid for \\192.168.1.65\USB_HDD_2.
Enter the password for '192.168.1.65\admin' to connect to '192.168.1.65':

The user name or password is incorrect.

Hi CABird_UK,
It seems things are moving in the right direction :)
It is on purpose that command prompt keeps the cursor in a static position when you type the password. It is a security thing.
If you instead want to feed the password directly into the net use command, you can simply add the password in the end. Make a space after /user:admin and here add your password. Remember it has to be the same password as the one you use for the web admin page.
Here it is:
net use \\192.168.1.65\USB_HDD_2 /user:admin yourpassword
Cheers
Implemented but problem persists. I still cannot access USB drives.

System error 5 has occurred.The command syntax is finally correct. You shouldn't be posting the passwords you are using here - but the password you want to use is the NAS admin password. That is the same password that you use when accessing https://192.168.1.65/admin in your browser. If you never set the NAS admin password, it is password
Also, if you are making multiple attempts that fail to work, you might need to enter net use * /d before each.
