Hate to pile on, but while installing the Black Armor 220 (its a replacement for a 6 month old Maxtor Central Axis that died), I had "other problems" with the recycle bin.
first, there are scant details on how this feature works in the user guide. it says to go read the on-line help, but that link is dead on my machine. nothing happens when i click it. there's an address pointing the server then to recycleBin then some other stuff. but nothing comes up. So here I am, googling for help
The Undelete and Delet buttons seem clear enough. but what is the "delete after (3 days) Clean" supposed to do?
The popup warning (obviously not proofread by anyone) says " Are you sure you want to delete files which are older than match the condition you set? If yes, click ok and then the files you select will destroy permanently from NAS. Otherwise, click Cancel to cancel the action." I suppose i'll find out in 3 days. It could mean...
a) any file over 3 days old will be deleted right now. or
b) any file i have flagged (actually, i don't have any flagged at the moment, so this is another bug), will be deleted 3 days from now. or
c) maybe i don't even have to flag the files...could it be that you don't have to check anything in order for the Clean button to work? you just click the clean button and files that were deleted more than 3 days ago will be permanently deleted? [this conflicts with what the previous posters have posted, so it may be a bad guess.] what i wouldn't give for a few lines of documentation.
thats in advance, anyone.
until then, i better not use these recycle bin feature.
