General • Re: Network drives 'Fast rescan' explanation about NTFS volumes on Linux share

Fast rescan requires a NTFS compatible file system.

The best way to test if the file system is compatible is to:

Create a new folder inside another folder.
Check if the date modified timestamp for the parent folder updates to the current time.

To clarify create folder B inside folder A and check the date modified timestamp of folder A updates.



If the date modified timestamp updates, then the file system is "Fast rescan" compatible.
Fast rescan will only read folders that have a new date modified timestamp.



Everything cannot reliably test if the folder is "Fast rescan" compatible.
It's up to the user to select this option.
