I recently had massive problems with my LinkStation and had to flash the firmware on it….
When I finally got it up and running again, my admin screen was in Japanese!!
The Orca firmware should be compatible with all of them but since I had no way to test it, I'm only telling people it definitely works on the Pro Duo. LS-WXL LinkStation™ Duo Double-drives RAID Network Storage CS-X Access and share your data with anyone, anywhere! Buffalo CloudStation™ is your simple and secure personal cloud server. Scroll to the firmware section and select the firmware update utility for Windows. Once the download finishes, right-click the zip file and choose 'Extract All' or use your preferred utility to un-zip the file. Once unzipped you should see the original file along with a folder by the same name.

Then, change the first drop down (indicated by arrow) to English, and the second drop down to CP437.
Click the button at the bottom.
Exit the browser, and restart.
