| Hello together,
since a few weeks I use the 300GB Maxtor Share Storage as an external
Backup Drive. It works pretty well, except a problem which I have with
the "Last Modified" and "Last Accessed" File Dates.
Lets assume a file which is stored on the local hard drive is
Created : 3-oct-05
Last Modified : 1-dec-05
Last Accessed (for Viewing) : 27-dec-05
After copying the file to the Maxtor Shared Storage "Last Modified" and
"Last Accessed" will become the same, both 1-dec-05. This is ok.
After viewing or copying (or any other read-only access) a file on the
Maxtor Shared Storage the "Last Modified" file date will be changed to
the current date. "Last Accessed" keeps unchanged (1-dec-05). This is
always the case, i.e. with every access to the file, the "Last
Modified" date will be updated.
The causes heavy problems with my backup software or even when I just
copy JPGs/RAWs to the Maxtor Shared Storage because I do not know which
version is the newer one, local drive or shared storage. Nero Backup
for example can not restore any files. I get an error message that the
backup file was changed after the backup, because of the new file date.
Does anyone know about this problem and a solution ?
Thanks, Andreas
