Mount ReadyNAS USB Drive on Mac
I have a USB drive connected to my ReadyNAS which I used the ReadyNAS to format. I tried several formats Ext3, Ext4, ... I am able to fully access the USB drive using the ReadNAS web interface.
On my Macbook Pro I have the Pargon NTFS service installed and can read all of the Windows type of formatted drives.
I can use the Go->Connect To Server option to mount the SMB ReadyNAS internal drives. I am not able to mount the USB connected drive or folders. I have verified that the USB drive is shared and that full rights are provided.
Can someone tell me how to mount the drive on my Macbook?

Well, ext formats are linux-only. Since you have NTFS support on the Mac, then you should be formatting the drive as NTFS.
You can do that in the NAS or in the PC.
