Recycle bin fills up my ReadyNAS
I use Radiator 1.4.6 with my ReadyNAS Duo. About two months ago I enabled the Recycle bin for my CIFS share "Backup", with options "Remove files older than: 10 days" and "Limit Recycle Bin to: 200 Mb"...
Dear Jedi and Other posters,
Can I manually deleted items in the share recycle bins w/o creating trouble with my live data?
Have read this thread several times now. Yes, I have this problem also on my Duo (specs in sig below). I have 2 shares (Data and LAN Backups). Both use CIFS only and both display a "Recycle Bin." I do like that the ReadyNas appears to properly put deleted files in the Recycle Bins. But, the ReadyNas does NOT seem to ever clean-up its' share's recycle bins! My current recycle bin settings are 3 days and 20000MB.
Things I've done:
Rebooted the ReadyNas
Rebooted the ReadyNas w/Volume check
Rebooted the ReadyNas w/Quota check
Rebooted the ReadyNas w/ Volume check and Quota check
My ReadyNas runs 24/7, but my drives go to sleep after 2hrs of inactivity (mostly during horizontal time). During vertical time, my Duo gets viewed/opened frequently between 0700-2300hrs.
Still both share recycle bins continue to grow in size as I clean (delete) old files. The OLD stuff just never seems to just go away!
