Checking Drives

A disk check tests the data on a drive in the LinkStation or connected via USB for integrity. Errors are fixed

automatically. With large drives, a disk check may run for many hours. Shared folders cannot be accessed during a

disk check. Do not turn off the LinkStation until the disk check is finished. Follow the procedure below to run a disk

check.

1 In Advanced Settings, click Drives.

2 Click Drives to check an internal drive or USB Drives to check an external drive.

3 Select the drive to test and click Check Disk.

4 Click Check. You have the option of deleting information files from Mac OS during the check if desired.

Formatting Drives

Note: Under some circumstances, data deleted when a drive is formatted can be recovered. To ensure that data

is "gone forever", a format might not be sufficient. See the "Erase Data on the LinkStation Completely" section

below.

1 In Advanced Settings, click Drives.
