You can reach the web ui (frontview) of the NAS from the Win10 web browser?
Assuming that is the case, then the next step is to go into "turn windows features on or off" on the PC, and make sure the SMB 1.0 client is enabled. 4.2.x firmware only supports SMB 1, so you will need to enable it (and ignore any security warning).
After you enable SMB 1, try to access the NAS using file explorer. Enter \\nas-ip-address in the address bar (using the real IP address of course). Make sure you use the correct slash.

Hi jonjon79,
Welcome to the Community!
If you have Internet Security Software or firewall installed on your PC, you may try temporarily disabling it.
If the laptops are connected via WiFi, you can also try connecting them via Ethernet and see if RAIDar 6.5.0 will be able to detect NAS.
Regards,
