MacOS directories incomplete
My network is small with only Macs connected. It accesses the ReadyNAS via SMB. One directory has about 16K files and/or folders. Often when I open this directory only some of the folders show up in ...
Hi Blues11
OS 6.8 made an enhancement on the SMB protocol for MacOS users.
The issue might be with the loading of directories with large amount of files. Since you are on OS 6.9.3 have you tried enabling this enhancement?
Hope this helps!

It's been a while and I came to check if there was a solution to the problem. I have the time because I created a directory and copied some files to it, but when I moved to the higher level folder the directory I just created is not there. It's been about fifteen minutes and I was hoping it would show up by now (along with perhaps four or five hundred other directories in that folder), but so far no luck. Maybe another ten or twenty minutes and the directory listing will be accurate.
Also, I thought I had replied to the earlier message, but I see that I may not have. However, I did enable the enhanced SMB several months ago. It didn't seem to do anything to fix this problem.
Thank you.
