USB Settings
Setup USB Disk: The USB Disk setup options
species if an attached USB Disk is to
be used as a shared folder. Using it as
a shared folder increases the capacity of
LinkStation. Selecting the Disable option
makes it impossible to make the USB Disk
drive a shared folder. However, if set to
Disable, the USB Disk will still be available
for Disk Backup.
NOTE: The USB Disk must be attached
to the rear USB Port to work properly.
The front USB Port only works with USB
Printers.
Recycle Bin: The recycle bin is a feature that moves deleted data to a recycle bin before
completely deleting. If the recycle bin is disabled, then any deleted data inside the USB Disk
cannot be restored. If the recycle bin is enabled, then all deleted data will be moved rst to a
folder called .trash on the USB Disk. Data may then be removed from the recycle bin before
it is permanently deleted. In Windows it may be necessary to set Windows to display all
hidden les and folders before the .trash folder is visible. Consult your OS documentation
for more information. Mac OS 10.2 or higher is required for Recycle Bin functionality in Mac
environments.
