Can't access ReadyNAS Pro 6

saudade 121.0 worked, thank you. I've been able to update RAIDiator to 4.2.31.
Sorry to say I'm still experiencing strange behavior in the menus. Also I still can't see the NAS in Network, although I can access it by typing in the path.

That has always been hit or miss. One workaround is to set up a desktop shortcut that opens up the NAS shares in file explorer. Though personally I just enter \\NAS-IP-ADDRESS

The answer here might depend on your plans. Your NAS can be converted to run OS-6, which is much newer. That requires a factory reset, so you do need a full backup of your data. I also recommend upgrading the Pro 6 to run 2 GB or maybe 4 GB (2x2 GB memory sticks) prior to conversion. That is inexpensive, and easy to do.
Were you able to install the add-on? That would let you use other browsers.
