Hi all,
I use a LG N2A2 NAS within my home network along with various other wireless gadgets and external HDDs attached to main desktop PC.
When i checked my NAS for a file, i noticed a new network folder "Seagate usb-1" along with Multimedia,My SQL, Service, Share etc.... when clicking on my NAS ? from desktop?

My younger brother denies he connected the USB Seagate external 320GB.
What is annoyning is the fact the mentioned network folder contains nothing 0KB nil , nada.....
Can anyone tell me how i can remove this please ? as i see no options to do this.
I would be very grateful

Kind Regards J.Quid

      Additional Notes:​

      • If you do not find the option to delete the folder in the shared folders section, you may need to check other sections related to connected devices or external storage.
      • Make sure to investigate further to ensure that the unknown drive or device causing the folder to appear is not connected to your network without your knowledge.
