Recycle Bin
Hi,
Can anyone tell me how to empty the recycle bin or where I would find options for controlling the size of the recycle bin?
Thanks,
Gaz.

Can you tell us what firmware the NAS is running?
Hi, yes it's RAIDiator 5.3.11 - I'm planning to update to 5.3.12 soon if that will make any difference.
I wanted to confirm that you had a v2 (many v1 owners think they have v2's).
I don't own a v2 NAS and the software manual doesn't mention the recycle bin - so I can't help on your specific question. Hopefully someone who can will chime in.
Hello gaz8080,
I don't think ReadyNAS OS5 has Recycle Bin feature.
Regards,
ReadyNAS OS 5 does have a recycle bin. On the dashboard, select Configure, then the Shares tab, scroll down in the right-hand pane and you will find a checkbox to enable it. If there is a way to control settings for automatic emptying, or even if it has such a feature that you cannot control, I have not found it in the documentation nor by experimentation. I have not SSH'ed into one to see if I can find anything that way.
Thanks - Yes I can enable/disable it easily enough but can't see any other options for retention etc.
