Its been a year i have been using the ssl certificate and its been working fine. wanted to update this post with how to install a renewed ssl certificate
1. If you do not re-key your ssl certificate, then you only need the intermediate bundle and the ssl certificate to be donwloaded from the ssl provider.

3. next place your new bundle and ssl certificate in a folder in readynas using your, say, windows explorer (PC users)--in my example i'll use Documents folder
4. copy these files to the certs folder as below:
5. next restart server using below two commands after typing cd (to take you to the root from your current folder level /etc/ssl/certs)
