Why do file or folder names appear different when I access the NAS via AFP and then SMB? Category : Setup / Operation The naming convention of file and folder is different between AFP and Microsoft. Therefore, if its name is not supported by Microsoft system, it will appear different name between SMB and AFP. Is the answer helpful? Related I cannot find any file on NAS via SMB on Mac after uploading a large number of files to NAS via SMB on Windows. Why is performance slower than before? Why can't I upload a single file larger than 4GB to the StoreJet Cloud? Technical Support If the answer can't help you, you can contact the Tech Support Department Get Started
