I have a external drive array attached via eSata to my computer. I share this drive out on the network so that I can access the files on my other computer. However, the drive always loses its share after a few days and has to be setup again. I usually turn the drive off at night and the computers are often on without the drive being on.
Any ideas? Both computers are Windows 7 x64 Pro.

You want to leave the drive on and seeing if your settings are still changing after that.
Here's a link that has some troubleshooting tips at the end of it (as well as some other information about the shared drives) that you might find some help in:

Good luck!

When you attach a harddrive, it gets a drive letter, namely, H:
Don't share H:. Make a folder, namely, D:\Shares and share it. Inside that folder make a junction to H:
E.g.
cd D:\Shares
mklink /j ExtDrive H:\

Hmm, well that document doesn't really address the issue I'm having. – Nori – 2011-01-07T14:09:47.087
