I'll have a look at how i can backup all the contents of the NAS first then. It's going to take quite large storage for that.
I've read the instructions via the gitlab link, however, I'm a little new to using ReadyNAS Terminal. Do i need to enable root SSH access first, as in the attached screenshot? Apologies but you might have to dumb this down for me as much as poss, only familiar with Mac OS.
Thanks for the help so far.

Yes. Last time I looked the certificate for the script was expired. But after you log in as root (using the NAS admin password), you can use these commands to execute it:
# cd //
# wget --no-check-certificate https://gitlab.codycook.us/readynas-scripts/share_lun_ui_fix.sh/raw/master/share_lun_ui_fix.sh
# chmod +x ./share_lun_ui_fix.sh
# ./share_lun_ui_fix.sh
(The # prefixes are the end of the NAS ssh prompt, you don't actually enter those)

They tell you to paste the text into a document created with VI (so it has LF-only EOL's, not CRLF's). I did that and put the file in my dropbox. Then you just execute in locally instead of with wget.

In my instructions, wget is just downloading the script (so no need for vi). I then execute it locally.
