Netgear R7000 USB Data Corruption

[ankydu]

I recently connected my 16 GB HP mini USB 2.0 pen drive to the USB 3.0 port of my R7000. I accessed the pen drive via network and created a folder and copied a few files in it via WIFI, Later on I rebooted the router about twice in 2 days and on the 3rd day when I tried to access the folder, it says Access Denied. However I was able to access all the other folders which I created when the pen drive was directly connected to my laptop. Then I removed the pen drive from the router and connected it directly to my laptop. Windows notified me that it needs to fix errors in the pen drive. I ignored the message and tried to access the same folder, still it showed Access Denied. Then I ran Windows error scan on the drive and it fixed the drive by getting rid of that folder.

Is there any fix for this problem. I am already running the latest firmware.

A long standing unresolved problem with NTFS formatted drives with the R7000. See:

R7000 Firmware Version 1.0.3.80

Does anyone know if this problem was solved with firmware 1.0.3.80? The release note says that NTFS driver was upgraded. Is NTFS performance improved? I am debating buying this router specifically for using it with external USB drive. Thanks for any input.
