Thanks for that info.
I find it difficult to accept that the upgrades of Raidiator beyond 4.1.8 do not allow the security mode share. If it is impossible to update the firmware as has been said to me by level 3 support.
<quote> It may not be fully compatible because the NAS that you have is no longer in production we ended producing the kind of NAS that you have. We also could not create an additional firmware for any fixture for it since we stop manufacturing that kind of model that you have the ReadyNAS RND4000. By the way have you tried accessing it with Windows XP as per advice of our level 3.</quote>
The problems associated with using Windows 7 seem to be solved by going BACK to Windows XP.
I find the loss of the 'Share Space used' unacceptable and the only thing I can see I might lose in going back to 4.1.8 is a possible loss of some updates relating to SAMBA for Windows 8. I do not use Windows 8 or 8.1. Probably never will.
I suppose I am stuck in the past.
