USB HDD denied access
Hi
I have connected a USB drive formated in NTFS to my NAS. There are several folders on it which I uses with PLEX Server. I have ejected this device several times and also rebooted with the USB device being connected and everything works nice.
Nevertheless no way to create a folder or add any files to this HDD and this if I try to do this from my computer but also if I try to do this from the html NAS interface !!! Both were possible some days ago !!! I have checked the USB Network settings from the NAS html control interface and they seem to be correct - full access to everyone.
Thanks if you can tell me what to do to correct this blocking situation...

Hi,
I have a similar problem with a usb hdd formatted ntfs: when connected to the laptop can read it without problems but if I connect to the ReadyNAS 104 (firmware 6.4) is detected, but can not see the content through the admin console of the NAS.
I think that the problem is caused by the NTFS format because if I connect USB devices FAT32 see the content and can copy it to the the NAS.
I do not know how to change the access rights to the files to resolve the issue.
thank you
