How to rename USB_HDD_2 - OS6.2.2
Hi there, Is there a way to rename my external drive volume back to USB_HDD_1. For some reason its jumped to USB_HDD_2. I am currently on OS 6.2.2. Cheers.

Thanks guys for the help. Sorry I'm a bit of a noob with the ReadyNAS boxes.
I managed to clear the data stored in the storage.conf file via SSH thanks to another thread I found on the forum.
All is good now - it's back to USB_HDD_1.
I'm a bit concerned with the "Allow Snapshot Access" method that a cryptolocker-type malware could run through the Snapshots folder and damage all the "snapshots"
since it's just a normal folder with different "versions" of that shared folder.
With the other method, the only way to access snapshots is via the ReadyNAS Admin Page?
What hidden folder is it under?
Will a rsync backup copy all the snapshots if the source is set to \data?
Thanks

"restore previous versions" from windows explorer either (a) needs admin access to the NAS or (b) needs "allow snapshot access" to be on.
