partitions are not recognized.

Dismounting Drives

If the LinkStation is powered on, dismount drives (internal and external) before unplugging them. You may
dismount the external drive using the function button, or dismount any drive 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 the shared
folder list. Reboot your LinkStation to clear it.

Dismounting Using the Function Button

Press and hold down the function button for three seconds. The white function LED will go out as all attached USB
drives are dismounted. You may now unplug any USB drives safely.
