Windows 10 and SMB 2 2EE51BRY00128
Our IT department does not want to enable SMB 1 in Windows 10. I went through the process of installing "Enable Root SSH Access" and CLI min protocol to SMBV2. This did not work. Any other ideas?
Per (https://community.netgear.com/t5/Using-your-ReadyNAS-in-Business/SMB1/m-p/1305130#M169712)...I added "min protocol = SMB2" to the global section of ./etc/samba/smb.conf.

Did you also set max protocol = SMB2
Did you restart samba after you did this?

I do not recall if I did...I'm following up this after a few months. I do recall rebooting the ReadySAN. Is there an documentation on the steps or are these the two items I might have overlooked?

SMB2 support is experimental in your old NAS and disabled by default - so you would need to set this.
There is no documentation on disabling SMB1 in legacy ReadyNAS - and if the settings work, they might not be sticky. That is, making other configuration changes to the NAS (creating new shares, adjusting settings on old ones, ...) or reinstalling firmware might undo them.
Upgrading to a new ReadyNAS is probably the best approach - for instance the RN426. Also, as Sandshark suggests, converting the Ultra-6 to run OS-6 is another avenue that would give you SMB3 along with other features. Netgear provides a supported way to disable SMB1 on the OS-6 ReadyNAS, using their SMB Plus app.

Will the current media be lost when converting the Ultra-6 to run OS-6? What is the process?
