RN312 - hdd name of connected USB drives

I have problem with RN312, soft 6.2.0

When usb hdd is connected (back port, usb 3.0) system assign network name USB_HDD_1.
After restart NAS (or force shutdown) even reconnect this usb drive (hot swap) network name of ubs share automaticly change to USB_HDD_8 (etc 5,11,14).

In options: shares, external, settings of usb
NAME cannot be changed (this option is greyed out)

Question:
Whether the name of usb hdd can be changed ?

I would like to be able to change the name, as in the case of SATA drives.
Because every time the network name of the disk is different and features USB backup disk do not work.

SATA drives are functioning properly and topic not apply.
