No folder 0000000000000000 visible under FTP

Hi folks.

I used Party Buffalo Drive Explorer to transfer most of my content to the my 640gb HDD, including XexMenu.

I'm now using FTP to access the drive, but when I log in via Filezilla (v 3.3.5.1) I don't see a 0000000000000000 folder - instead I see what looks like it, but preceeded with a date.

I can't access the folder, but I can FTP files into it, and from XexMenu cut/paste them to the right folder:

Any ideas why I can't see the 0000000000000000 folder by default? Could it be that it was injected by PBDE rather than existing on the drive already?

Thanks!

Initially the folder won't exist, you have to create it your self. What are you trying to do exactly? FTP or physically connect the drive to your PC?

I initially connected the drive direct to PC, used PBDE to inject the content to the drive, including the 0000000000000000 folder - it's there, and there's 190gb of content on there that all shows up under NXE.

But under FTP, which I am using now as I only have a few files to transfer every now and then, there's no 0000000000000000 folder visible, just this odd "Jan 1 1601 0000000000000000" folder thats inaccessible.

Just fixed the images above.

You have done it differently to me, so I won't know what's going on. I just install the HDD into an MS case, format it under storage menu and then run xexmenu and I can see the content folder which I go into and then create that folder.

I'm wondering if using PBDE in the first instance to create the folder has somehow made it invisible to FTP. That's the only step I've done that's different to you, the drive was installed in an MS case & formated via the 360 in the first instance.

It's not exactly a huge hassle as I can still FTP content over, and move it with Xexmenu, but it's quite odd, especially the way that other folder has randomly appeared. I can't delete the 'Jan 1 1601''folder at all.

Was curious to see if anyone else had experienced it. FSD and Xexmenu both act in the same way.

Thanks anyway!
