[Help] Files Disappeared - Most unrecoverable from recycle bin.
Posted: 10 Oct 2025, 07:19
I'm quite perplexed. I have a F5-422 NAS running TOS 5.1.67.
Had been working on a video project and saved a number of files on a folder on a share. Went to find the items a few days later and they were gone. All the other video project folders were still there but the one I had been working on had disappeared.
Noticed that there were files in the recycle bin. Went to reinstate the files and whilst the files appear to have reinstated. Most were still missing and reported as 0 bytes. Even weirder is that a simple text file no longer exists anywhere.
I dont understand why the items have disappeared and why they dont seem recoverable.
