Hello,
This is the Old Man that knows just enough to be **VERY**VERY** dangerous.
I just got my ReadyNAS Ultra 4 yesterday and equiped it with 4 2TB drives setup in Raid 5 configuration. I can connect via Windows Explorer and Internet Explorer and am successfully adding Shares and Users to transfer files from all local PCs to the NAS via Windows Explorer.

I have two Windows Vista Home systems and even added a 'non-primary' account for the NAS as recommended in previous posts. I changed each PC to share the C: drive with no difference. I can access the C: drive from each PC to the other PC without error upon primary account login and they appear in the local network landscape automatically.
Where else can I look???
