I've been trying to write information from my N3200 to an external hard drive connected via a USB port.

For some reason it always comes up as READ ONLY.

I've looked through the Service Folder configuation and the USBHDD folder is listed as public and browsable. I don't see any other way to configure the security.

How can I make the USB external drive R/W??

thx

So I think I answered my own question.

Turns out that you can only read information from an NTFS formatted partition.

If I want to write information to my external drive, I have to format it as FAT32. Uggg... guess that kinda makes sense though.... Looks like I have some work ahead of me.
