Downgrading ReadyNAS firmware from 6.10.x - Redux
I know this subject has been covered in the past, but almost all the articles are from many years ago. And none are helpful for my issue. I've been using my reliable ReadyNAS 102 for many years now. ...

Sandshark.
Thank you for the very useful info. It seems unwise to try to downgrade this any further.
Is there anything you can think of that I might do to figure out why my NAS is so slow? I've ssh'd into the NAS and used top to monitor the CPU usage and it's very high when using Windows Explorer to copy large files, about 90%.
I'm at a loss to figure this out.

Your NAS is slow because the 100 series are the least capable OS6 based ReadyNAS. Both the processor and RAM are limitations. I suppose it's possible that the upgrade to OS6.10.x used enough additional memory that everything slowed down. Do you have any apps running? Disabling them might help.
