I don't think any of our services would create these. I think it must be some software on your PC.

Which OS is on the client machine?
Which firmware is on the NAS?
Which protocol are you using e.g. SMB?
How are you copying the data onto the NAS?

Which OS is on the client machine? Windows 10 / I also use MAC OS X _ El Capitano (Mainly Windows 10 though)
Which firmware is on the NAS? 4.2.27 : ReadyNAS Pro 6
Which protocol are you using e.g. SMB?
Windows 10 uses the Microsoft SMB Protocol (SMB) Protocol, That is what I use
MAC OS X: I use smb through the server connect, Normally MAC OS X would use AFP (Apple Filing Protocol). This is the Apple's native file sharing protocol for mapping network drives, I never use that.
How are you copying the data onto the NAS?
I have a mapped network drive and use explorer to Cut and Paste.
I was using Teracopy for a few weeks but it was buggy and not as quick as it cliams. I removed it a few weeks ago.
Thank you

This is odd. I don't think I've seen a BLSNFO file before.
