File System

Greetings,

What file system does My Cloud use? I’m using Windows. Are any NFTS file attributes lost when coping to My Cloud?

Thanks,
Shane.
8 TB My Cloud
model number wdbctl0080hwt-nesn

Generally the single bay My Cloud units use Linux EXT4 file system for the user data file partition.

Yes, extended attributes of NFTS (or Mac APFS and HFS+) are potentially lost however if you are OK with command line programs:

ssh root@MyCloud
nano /etc/samba/smb-global.conf

add under the [global] section:
ea support = yes

Ctrl-w (to writeout/save the changes)
Ctrl-x (to exit nano)

Then:
/etc/init.d/samba restart
exit
