I have the WD NAS with the white light stripe for about 2 weeks now. I copied some files there and later found I could not delete them. I came to this forum for answers.
(Quick update since there are MAC users here: I am running Windows 7)
After several things(reset, copy(althought not authorized to cut) , this was best solution which worked for me.
-
Download WINSCP (its a file manager and its free)
-
Install and log in using your IP address and admin credentials. (U don’t have to use SSH…just use FTP option)
-
There is a really nice and understandable interface. Just click the fle and F8 to delete.
For as often as I will be deleting files, this works for me. Again I understand that for some guys just the fact it does not work like its supposed to drives them on a quest till its solved. I am like that for some things, but this one was just not worth it to me if I have another option. Other than that I was going to send it back which is such a hassle. So try this first. It may hold you over till WD has the fix and then u can do it.
