Dismounting Drives
If the LinkStation is powered on, dismount external drives before unplugging them. You may dismount external
drives with the function button, or any drives from Settings. If the LinkStation is off, then all drives are already
dismounted and may be unplugged safely.
Note: If you unplug your external drives without dismounting them, Settings may still show "usbdisk" in File
Sharing - Folder Setup. Reboot your LinkStation to clear it.
Dismounting with the Function Button
If the LinkStation is on, hold down the function button for 3 seconds. The white function LED will go out as all
attached USB drives are dismounted. You may now unplug them safely.
