/mnt/usbdisk1
• If a file was created or copied by AFP, you may not be able to delete it using an FTP connection. If this occurs, use
an SMB or AFP connection instead to delete the file.
• For FTP connections, make sure that the total filename including directory path is 250 single-byte characters or
less.
• If the TeraStation has joined a domain network, you cannot connect to it via FTP.
