SMB Protocol 3.1.1 and Windows 10
https://kb.netgear.com/24913/How-do-I-back-up-my-Windows-PC-to-a-ReadyNAS-OS-6-system-using-Windows-Backup-and-Restore I'm refrencing this article to lower the SMB version to 2.0 for Windows Back...
I believe it was true back in 2016, but I suspect Microsoft resolved the issue after that.
I suggest just trying the backup with SMB 3.1.1, and see if it works.
Yes it worked just fine. I'm assuming if it didn't I would have gotten a connection error? I was more worried about the data being corrupt. I downloaded the newest manual and it somewhat differs from that older article. Thanks for your response StephenB

The backup would have failed - not sure what the error would be.
Thanks for posting back, it's good to know that workaround is no longer needed.
JohnCM_S , Marc_V - It looks like this article needs some updating: https://kb.netgear.com/24913/How-do-I-back-up-my-Windows-PC-to-a-ReadyNAS-OS-6-system-using-Windows-Backup-and-Restore
