During backup from W10 Machine to the ReadyNAS 214, I get a failure about five minutes into it. The backup but then stops with the log below as the result. Not sure what they permission issue. This is a backup of the C drive. I can do a copy from D drive with no problem on the same machine. Not sure what's going on with all the permissions. I truned off all the anti-virus software but get the same result. The credentials for access to the machine test out fine. Any help would be appreciated.
Not all folders on the system drive can be backed up with SMB.
You could use Windows Backup (set to back up to the NAS). https://kb.netgear.com/24913/How-do-I-back-up-my-Windows-PC-to-a-ReadyNAS-OS-6-system-using-Windows-Backup-and-Restore
Personally I use Acronis TrueImage (which also can back up to a NAS network folder).
StephenB,
Thanks for ther reply. I'll give that a shot. :Plus, I've used Acronis in the past and found it to be very robust.
