Access external connected USB drive NAS 104
ReadyNas 104 - Fireware 6.5.1 I've connected USB drive. Is there a way to access the drive like a i-SCSI drive i.e. upload and view drive contents without having to access USB drive via brows...
Finally found the solution I was looking for. Thanks to all, who assisted me, to find a solution.
Hello
First section, YES to all below.
-you can't access anything on the RN104 with windows explorer, this is not specific to the USB drive.
-but the same PC can access your NV+ with windows explorer
-the PC is running windows 10 enterprise
-both the NV+ and the RN104 have SMB enabled, and the NAS shares on both machines have guest access enabled.

Second section
-are the two NAS connected to the network the same way (that is, through the same switch/router)? Yes switch.
-does the PC have any internet security software installed? Use Windows Defender.
-are both NAS set to the same windows workgroup? Yes.
-does the computer name or the username on the PC match an account or a share name on the NAS? NAS login differs to Win 10 computer and user names.
-does the behavior change if you uninstall ReadyCloud? No

Ok, but does either the PC logon or PC name happen to match the name of a public share on the NAS?
Does either the PC logon or PC name happen to match the name of a public share on the NAS? NO - NAS public share applied defaults see below.

Do you have public shares on the data volume? If so, are you trying them also?
