I had the same error 50 message whenever I tried to copy a directory to my ReadyNas Pro 4 using the AFP share.
Typical case is copying a directory with some files and subdirectories:
the files copy up to the subdirectory and an empty subdirectory gets created before I get the unexpected error 50 message.
None of the subdirectory contents gets copied over, and none of the files (or other subdirectories) after the first subdirectory (in my Finder listing) get copied either.
I have the same problem on my MacBook Pro (2.5GHz Intel Core i7, OSX 10.7.5) over the WiFi and my iMac (Intel Core 2 Duo, OSX 10.6.8) over Ethernet to my Netgear DGND3730 wireless modem router. The ReadyNAS Pro is connected to the router with two ethernet cables.
Using the CIFS share I can copy as much as I like with 99.999% accuracy (it still occasionally fails part way through a big copy), but it does seem slower.
Happily, it appears that once I "broke the ice" with CIFS, the AFP copying seems to have started behaving itself.
