Why USB-HDD is read-only? - mactolinux - 10-21-2018

Other shares are Read-Write. It has HFS+ format.

How can I fix HDD share to be Read-Write as well?

Thanks!

Based on the article below it appears that write is not really supported for HFS+ mounts on Linux.

If you want a USB drive that is portable between Linux and Mac then try Fat32 (vfat) format. Thats what I use for my USB and SSD disks.

Switched off "Journaled" function for the drive – worked well.
Speed is terrible... will try exFat and others. Maybe ext4.
