Did the permissions fix work? I am having the same issue when copying items to the USB 3.0 drives connected to my ReadyNAS Duo. I tried adjusting the permissions and made sure the drives were not configured for "Read Only" without results. When copying a file to an empty folder I get the "file already exists" message even though the folder is new and empty. If I choose to skip or ignore the folder gets a 0kb file inserted named the same as the file I am trying to copy. I have an auto-parser that migrates files for me and it lacks the capability to override and replace the non-existant "ghost files". Any thoughts on a resolution?

One of these is wrong (likely the first). There is no Duo that runs OS 6. Can you provide your NAS model (possibly a RN102, RN202, RN212, RN312)
How is the USB drive formatted?

Looks like there is no/very little data on your NAS?
Can you send in your logs (see the Sending Logs link in my sig)?- jcsdkx51Sep 28, 2016Aspirant
Correct, most of my data was already on the USB 3.0 drives and I am waiting to upgrade the drives in the NAS to larger ones but had to toss in my 2TB drives to set it up so it acts as the middle man before my pictures and other media are sorted into the folders on the external devices. I sent the logs according to your directions. Please let me know what else may help.
