Looking for Ready NAS 6 Pro and NV+ CFIS replacment solution
So I have a Pro 6 and a NV+ but since Windows wants to be secured it doesn't allow this CFIS format any more. Now how can I use anyway these NASes in the Explorer with the other offered formats?

You can turn on SMB V1 in current versions of Windows 10. So long as you are not exposing your network to the outside world, it should be secure. But the NV+ is pretty dog slow and small by today's standards, and relegating it to backup is something to consider. As a backup of your Pro6, you could stick with RSYNC. I've disabled SMB on my backup NAS so as to hide it from ransomware.(though I've never had any).
