Strange Folder Names...
We have a ReadyNAS516 with six 4TB drives in RAID six. The OS is version 6.5.1. I have a USB dock attached to the right rear USB port. I have 5 SSD's, one for each week day that I switch out on the U...
How is the USB drive formatted?
The SSD's are formatted as NTFS. The folder name PHBUY4~T looks sort of like the old 8.3 file names, but I would expect a name more like Project~s, not something random.
It clearly looks like a mangled name though. But it is odd that you are seeing it.
You are seeing these names with the USB drive connected to a windows system? Or is it connected to the NAS?
Via the NAS. I'm not sure why that would make a difference since as I stated, I have another backup that creates the destination folder just fine.
I just checked a few other of my backups. My PostgresSQL backup has a destination of USB/Back right and a path of /Postgres and the destination folder gets created properly. It only appears to be the one backup misnaming the destination folder PHBUY4~T instead of "Projects".
