Access USB Drive on TV from Network

Hello

I have a new Samsung UE46F8090 LED TV and I have connected an USB hard Disk via USB to the TV. Now I found out that it is not possible to copy or delete files of the usb Hard disk over ethernet with my PC. Thats a big problem for me so I tried to find a solution for that and found this board.
Can anyone tell me if there is a simple way to do this without losing warranty. Maybe a simple ftp access would be enough. is this possible without flashing firmware or something like that.

best regards Maik

If you have samygo installed you have two options:

1) have smb installed and working. Your pC will see the TV as a smb share \dtv\sda1 (this in my case)
2) you can access via FTP the \dtv\sda1 and manage the files inside.
