I have the NAS rack 3100 hard wired into a unifi switch. I access it thought window 10. Not using a browser. I open up the NAS folder and start copying files over. Let's say 10 gb size. Half e way thought it will drop the connection. I then have to reboot the NAS. And start again. But if u leave it to idle I will go back to it let's say an hour later. The NAS is there but will not open.. So I have to restart NAS to use it. Thanks

What firmware are you running?

If the logs don't give any clues, it may be useful to enable SSH and leave an SSH session open until you lose access. Then use TOP to see if any processes seem to have stopped or are taking 100% of CPU time. If you are not fa,iliare with what the normal processes look like in TOP, jusr take a peak at them before anything goes amiss. The main one to see is still running normally is readynasd. though BTRFS and SMB processes may also be important.
