My laptop is joined to my work domain, and I am not seeing this issue.
The general format for a windows logon is domain\username. But the ReadyNAS ignores the domain portion.
Try opening a command window, and enter
net use * /delete
net use t: \\nas.ip.address\data /user:admin password
where nas.ip.address is the ip address of your nas, and password is the admin password of the NAS.
That should map the NAS data volume to the T drive letter on the PC.
Let us know if that works for you (and if not, what error you are getting).
