Check Disk

A disk check tests the data on a drive in the LinkStation or connected via USB. Errors are fixed automatically. A disk check may run for more than ten hours. Shared folders cannot be accessed during the disk check. Do not turn off power to the LinkStation during the disk check.

If the Power Mode Switch is set to AUTO, then the LinkStation will turn off when the disk check is finished.

Run a disk check as follows:

1	In the Web Admin interface, navigate to [System] -
	[Storage].

1 Select the hard drive to test.

2 Click [Check Disk].

Click [Check].

The Status LED on the front of the LinkStation will flash during the disk check.

Note: If a power outage disconnects the LinkStation in the middle of a disk check, then you may not be able to access shares on the LinkStation from Mac OS. This is because the database created by Mac OS is damaged. To resolve, navigate to [System] - [Storage]

-[Check Disk] and check [Delete any hidden, non-essential Mac OS dedicated files]. Rerun the disk check when done.
