JohnRo,
Thank you.
Wehn moving that folder to another spot (closer to the base dir), they download fine. I mis-spoke before about the contents of this folder being the issue. All of the folders that are 1 hop closer to the bas dir, their contents are having the same issue.
Also, I added a few test files of other types and they are doing the same thing; downloading inccorectly.
Oh, one by one, and the entire folder, both outcomes were the same.
It seems to me like a name length issue through the ReadyCLOUD. Like I said above, they download as you'd expect locally from the ReadyNAS.

Hello Creed088,
I have not encountered such a thing, but I can definitely test it on some units. I am going to need some information for me to test accurately. I have enumerated my questions below:
1. What is your naming convention? Do you use special characters or number?
2. Lenght of the folder names.
3. Firmware version of the NAS.
I'll look forward to your response.
Thanks,
