Quota inaccuracy
« on: January 29, 2012, 07:25:04 PM »

My DNS-325 has a 500GB hard disk in it. When I set it up, I set quotas of 50GB per member of my family to backup some of their personal files to.

This weekend, my son decided to reformat his computer and reinstall Windows, so he backed up his files to his personal backup folder that I set up on the DNS-325. After his system was back up and running, he copied his files from the DNS to his computer and then deleted most of them from the DNS, leaving approximately 20GB of his files on it.

This evening he asked me to delete the files from the DNS recycle bin because it indicated that he didn't have any of his 50GB quota left.  I removed everything from the recycle bin. Despite that, the DNS is still indicating that he has almost 50GB used of his quota.

I modified all of the shares on the DNS-325 to disable the recycle bin option. No change. I rebooted it. Still no change. I disabled quotas altogether, and it still says he's using almost 50GB of space.

He only has write access to two shares on it -- his personal backup, where he has 20GB of files stored, and a "family share" where there are no files currently stored.

Any idea what's happening?

Thanks,

Scott
