Unexpected folders in /media/._share

Unexpected folders in /media/._share

Hot mounted USB drives still randomly are not recognised resulting in USB_HDD_1 (or 2 ...) being created in /media

 

I also notice a folder /._share in /media

 

This in turn has folders USB_HDD_1 (or 2 ...) . These folders contain files:

ftp.conf

nfs.conf

samba.conf

 

While no USB device is connected can I delete /media/._share/USB_HDD_1 (or 2 ...)

Many thanks

Hi davidr1,

 

Those files would be there for the system to remember settings for when the disk is next connected.

 

If I may add also, you can try using the beta firmware to see if it will help with the USB detection issue.

 

ReadyNASOS 6.7.0-T158 (Beta 1)

 

Regards,
