Problem with MyCloud times - Auto setpoint and File modification times

My Cloud OS 3 Personal & Network Attached Storage My Cloud

I have 2 related observations regarding MyCloud time setting.

I am on GMT+1.

I set up a setpoint with an auto update time. In my case 9 pm. At 9 pm, nothing happened. (I remember seeing others complain that setpoint auto update was not working). This morning at 6 am I noticed the attached USB drive flashing. It was doing the setpoint auto update but 9 hours later.

After auto update was finished (notification received), I disconnected the USB and attached it directly to my computer.

I looked at the modification time of a test file and noticed it was 9 hours later than the original on my computer (and on MyCloud).

I plugged the USB back into MyCloud and looked at the modification time; this time the modification time was correct.

Conclusion: it seems to me that MyCloud is processing time inconsistently - both in its internal processes and in the file date/time.

THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS BUG AS THE USB DRIVE IS INTENDED TO BE REMOVED AND PLUGGED INTO ANOTHER SYSTEM.

 Hello,

Thanks for sharing.

possibly related to this.  When I copy a file from pc to ftp, the file time will be 12:01 AM for a file that is REALLY created 7:01 PM on the same day.  I see this with the pc, android folder sync app as well.  I am in -5 GMT Easter time zone.
