Add a USB hard drive to the LinkStation
simply by plugging it in to USB port on the
LinkStation. It will then appear in the master
folder as a new share on the LinkStation. Not
all USB hard drives are supported. Some USB
hard drives may need to be reformatted with
the LinkStation’s format utility before working
properly.
Before disconnecting a USB device from the
LinkStation, it should be dismounted. Hold
the function button down until it glows blue,
and then turns off. It’s now safe to unplug
your USB device. You may also dismount your
USB device from within
System/Storage/Disks
in the Web Admin Tool.
Note: Unplugging USB devices without
dismounting them first may corrupt your data!
