In this video I go over a technique to mount an exFAT formatted flash drive and a Synology NAS share in an Ubuntu virtual machine so files can be copied between the two directories.

List Partitions

sudo fdisk -l

Create Flash Drive Mount Point

sudo mkdir /media/flashdrive

Install exFAT Software

sudo apt install exfat-fuse exfat-utils

Mount Flash Drive

sudo mount -t auto /dev/sdxX /media/flashdrive

Create Synology NAS Share Mount Point

sudo mkdir /mnt/ShareName

Install CIFS Software

sudo apt install cifs-utils

Mount Synology NAS Share

sudo mount.cifs -o user=username,uid=userid,gid=groupid //ip_address_of_nas/ShareName/ /mnt/ShareName

Copy File from NAS to exFAT Flash Drive

cp /mnt/ShareName/filename.ext /media/flashdrive

Copy File from exFAT Flash Drive to NAS

cp /media/flashdrive/filename.ext /mnt/ShareName

Copy Files Recursively

cp -r source destination
