USB Settings

USB Disk Setup: The USB Disk setup options

specifies 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 first 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 files 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.
