Got to the end of my tether trying to share usb drives to samba with windows 8.1 (IRPStackSize seems like it should be the problem but no value makes a difference)
So thinking about a shake up and moving to a DS414 with a couple of 4tb reds in it. This way I can get rid of all my elements drives and move to a better approach.
How does the drive appear on the network? will it literally seem like a massive single drive? I use a popcorn hour and it really is happiest browsing just a single drive that is full of folders.
