Could you elaborate on that? I use Windows and know little to nothing about
linux. Are you asking me to check what my external hdd is formatted as?

slap the drive in your computer -> cmd.exe -> chkdsk /f x:
where x: is the letter assigned to that hdd.

I ran the check disk on the drive, it found errors and repaired them. File
system is NTFS. A quick look upon plugging the drive back into the router shows
it's still appearing in the log.

ok. you could also enable "Auto Check Filesystem on USB Storage Plug" under USB
Application - Common Setting.

The external hard drive seems to spin down after not being used for a while.
Today I went into the web ui and looked to see how much space was left on the
hdd. When it spun up an exclamation point appeared at the top near the log
button. It seems this error I'm getting has something to do with the hard drive
spinning up like that. Any other ideas? Thanks.

"Auto Check Filesystem on USB Storage Plug" don't work with NTFS, it is
affected for EXT file systems. The firmware don't include the tools for check
NTFS.

Any other suggestions guys?

Well... I would do either;
A) Format the drive again (ntfs) and see if the issue persists. Perhaps also do
a surface scan of the drive to check for bad sectors.
B) Format the drive as EXT2, 3 or 4.
Do post your findings here.

Can't really format at the moment as I don't want to lose the files on the
drive, and I don't have the space to back all of it up.
