When a storage device file system on the router does not function properly, you must repair and
format the file system before managing the storage device.
Context
When the file system on a storage device fails, the terminal of the router prompts you to rectify
the fault.
You can format a storage device if you are unable to repair the file system or do not need any
data saved on the storage device.
Formatting storage devices can lead to data loss. Exercise caution when performing this
operation.
