Changing share name of external HDDs as it was possible in Radiator 4.X

Hi,

 

in the Radiator 4.2.X Release I could change the share name of external HDDs.

Now it seems to me as if the name is fixed to HDD...

Is there any way to give an external HDD a diffrent share name?

 

Best Christian

I suggest posting this is a feature request in the idea exchange. 

 

There is a related feature already there that you could also vote for ( https://community.netgear.com/t5/Idea-Exchange-for-ReadyNAS/USB-Drive-quot-Mount-Name-quot-to-show-o... )

Thanks for the suggestion, I have already voted for that.

I really don't understand why this obvious feature was not implemented in the beginning.
