LinkStation User Manual 32
• File and folder names should contain 255 single-byte characters or less (UTF-8). DBCS characters
(such as Japanese) count as two characters (2 bytes) each. File and folder names should contain
255 bytes of data or less. You may not be able to copy a folder or le whose name contains more
than 255 bytes of information.
• You cannot set hidden or read-only attributes to subfolders or les on the LinkStation.
• If non-Roman alphabetical folder names or workgroup names do not display properly, rename the
folder or workgroup with Roman alphabetical characters.
• Please do not use any of the following words as the name of a shared folder. These words are
reserved for internal use by the LinkStation:
info, spool, usbdisk1, usbdisk2, usbdisk3, usbdisk4, lost+found, global, printers, homes, lp, auth,
test, ram, disk1, disk2, disk3, disk4, array1, array2, msdfs_root, mt-daapd
• The following characters are handled dierently by Mac OS X and Windows. Avoid using these
characters when sharing data between Mac OS X and Windows:
• The following characters are not displayed correctly by Windows, or by a Mac connected to the
LinkStation via SMB. Avoid their use in le names that will be used with the LinkStation.
• Never turn o the LinkStation or unplug its Ethernet cable while data is being written. Doing so
may result in an incomplete le that cannot be opened or deleted. If this happens, restart the
LinkStation, delete the le, then retry copying the le.
• Your OS may update the date and timestamp stored on the LinkStation’s hard drive, or on a USB
drive connected to the LinkStation. This might result in inaccurate information for date-created or
date-accessed data on the LinkStation.
• In the Web Admin interface, or from Mac OS X 10.6 or later, drive size is displayed in gigabytes,
where 1 gigabyte = 1,000,000,000 bytes. This is also how drive capacity is expressed on your
LinkStation’s packaging. However, if you check the drive size from an older Mac, or from
a Windows computer, it may display the size of the drive in gibibytes, where 1 gibibyte =
1,073,741,824 bytes. Since a gibibyte is larger than a gigabyte, the displayed drive capacity will be
a smaller number than the actual drive size.
