Recovering a deleted Share
Hi guys, I deleted a Share in the ReadyNas admin panel of my Duo v2. I intended to delete only the Share itself, not the physical folder it used to share. This folder called /important ( -> /c/...

Honestly- I don't understand why you thought that deleting the share wouldn't delete the data in it. If they called it "unshare" then I'd get it. But the "delete" word seems extremely clear. Blaming Netgear because "delete" actually deletes is very strange to me.

The share is the folder
And the cake is a lie...
On the other stuff, if you are good with linux and have the time you can certainly build your own custom-built NAS. I don't personally have the time/interest, and the turnkey ReadyNAS have worked reasonably well for me. I agree there are some compromises when you go turnkey, but there are some advantages also.
BTW, the file system itself is ext, so I don't understand your comments on that.
