Hidden Folders on ReadyNAS Duo v2 Visible In Windows Explore
Hi, When I view one of my ReadyNAS Duo v2' in Windows Explorer, I can see the following three folders; "admin", "c" and "home" They show up even if I set explorer to 'NOT' show hidden folders...
The admin home folder exists none the less (as does home itself), and "c" is the entire volume.

As mdgm says, they only show up when you are logging in with admin as the user name. Most likely you did log on that way recently, and saved the password - perhaps accidentally. Check the windows credentials manager, and see if there is a credential saved there.
