El capitan and time machine
Upgraded iMac to El Capitan and have problems with Time Machine .Backup begins and stops in short time
Tried your suggestion- I'm afraid the problem continues. What shall I do?
Hi dhillong,
Let me try reproduce this and see if we'll have the same problem. I will let you know when I'm done.
Kind regards,

I just bought a new iMac with a 3TB fusion drive. I have a ReadyNAS 316 with OS 6.4.0.
The new computer has 1.7 TB of files on it.
I'm trying to back up the newly-installed system (all 1.7 TB of it) to Time Machine running on that ReadyNAS.
I have no problem connecting, but the progress is so slow it might take 2 weeks to complete.
The network performance graph looks like this:

Both devices have a direct connection to a 1GB ethernet; ping times average 0.3 milliseconds.
I'm fresh out of ideas. I'm going to go buy a 2TB USB disk as an emergency backup device, but I'd really love to get Time Machine on the ReadyNAS 316 working.
Any suggestions?
