It sounds like permission issue on the Windows Share.

There is a KB for it: http://kb.netgear.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/29763

But I'm not sure this is sufficient in 100% of cases. There might still be some access issues (in you don't share it properly from the PC)

Hi chuber,

 

The article posted by @jak0lantash might help to resolve his issue (just imagine the interface of your Legacy ReadyNAS) also don't forget StephenB's suggestion. Because one way if the folder is shared properly to the network is by accessing it on another PC.
