ReadyNAS for Home RAIDiator 4.2
• Format FAT32. This option formats the device as a FAT32 file system. FAT32 format
is easily recognizable by most newer Windows, Linux, and Unix operating systems.
FAT32 imposes a 4-GB limitation per file.
• Format EXT3. This option formats the device as an EXT3 file system. Select this
option if you will be accessing the USB device mainly from Linux systems or network
storage devices. The advantage of EXT3 over FAT32 is that file ownership and mode
information can be retained using this format, which FAT32 does not support. You can
add support for EXT3 to the Windows and OS X operating systems. EXT3 does not
impose a file size limitation.

Copy USB Content Upon Connection
You can configure your ReadyNAS system to copy the content of a USB flash device to a
specified share whenever a USB flash device is connected to it. Files are copied to a unique

1. Select Volumes > USB Storage from the FrontView main menu.
The USB Storage screen displays, showing information about any USB storage devices
that are currently connected to your ReadyNAS system.
Scroll down to the USB Flash Device Option pane.
2. Select the When a USB flash device is detected, automatically copy the content to
check box.
3. Select a share from the Share drop-down menu.
4. Enter a path in the Path field.
5. Enter a user name or admin in the Copy as owner field.
6. Click the Apply button.
Your settings are saved.
