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?

OK Thx BIOS was already up to date. But now one question to the backup. Pobably I'm getting a 2nd Pro 6 NAS to backup every thing. But now how can I backup also the settings and everything else which is not dat related?

You can save the configuration in the web ui (it will download a zip file). Then you can put that in a share, to back it up on the other server.
This doesn't back up everything (especially if you've installed apps or packages with ssh). But it will get the shares, backup jobs, and user accounts.
Personally, I just configure the backup NAS identically to the main one, and apply any changes to both NAS.
