R7000 NAS Drive Can't Delete Files Folders Permissions Issue User \ Nobody
I have the R7000 with a Seagate STBV4000100 4TB USB 3.0 drive connected. I can connect to it just fine, drive shares work etc. From a WIN 7 64bit OS system using windows explorer I can create folders...
After a few reformats of the drive, it worked for me. The files on the eSata drive are exactly like the "standard" Windows Explorer. I can save, load, delete, change properties etc... Since it worked, I had to power down the router once, and after a restart, nothing had changed. Everything still working. (except the bad 5G wifi, and the "freaky" interface, but that was like before)...
When I format in EXT3, which is easy to do with Easeus or Partition Magic, I don't have any of these issues.
When I've used a drive formatted with any Windows format, FAT, NTFS, etc., I do. Can't delete any of these kinds of folders without plugging the USB drive into my PC or FTP process as noted above.
