I am new to NAS so I don't understand how to use the simple command "mount -l". Can you or someone else elaborate? I have four external USB drives connected to my AS5202 with a usb hub and all show up and can be accessed. But they are labeled USB 21, USB 22, USB 23, and USB 24. I would like them to show up as they do when connected to my PC directly, ie. with the HDD name. Can this be done, or where do I use the simple command?
"mount -l" is a manual command that you can execute in ssh session (enable terminal service first in ADM web). But it seems that you are not familiar with Linux command. It only helps you if you know Linux command well. And it does not change the share name.
ADM does not provide a way to change this USB share names (at least the current version).

Thank Orion. You ar correct, I am not familiar with Linux commands.

I didn't think you could change the USB share names, but wanted to make sure. It's not a major issue since I can use the external devices app to see some details about the drives, it would just have been nice to use the names I was already familiar with. I used these USB drives as direct attach previously so I am used to their names.
