Are you trying to say to create a link by "adding a network location" or "map network drive" into "This PC" explorer?
Yes, that is what I said. A desktop shortcut is another option. You can waste a lot of time trying to get the NAS to appear in network explorer, and the alternatives are much faster and always work,
Also, I said to create credentials for the NAS in the Windows Credentials Manager.

The file size exceeded message has to apply to the receiving PC, since the file is already correctly stored on the NAS. So I was thinking FAT32 for temp drive d - which has a file size limit that is smaller than 6 GB. Are you sure it is NTFS
Just forget it for now its working ok now.

Doesn't password should be exactly the same as ReadyNAS admin web page (not sure how you call it)?
There are two questions here - one is related to discovery (not showing up in the network list), and the second related to access. On the second point, the best way to save the credentials for the NAS in the windows credential manager. That can be "admin/nas-admin-password". That will make the access consistent.
On the network discovery side, I suggest adding the NAS as a network location in file explorer. Then you can access it easily even if it doesn't support in the network list.
