Hi FG
Have you enabled quotas? How ofthen do you take snapshots? You may try to disable quotas and see if you can reduce the snapshot frequency. You might be experiencing the slow performance due to this, also your data volume should be below 85% full, if ever it gets to that point it is always advised to free up space to eliminate performance issues.
Hope this helps

Quotas are enabled. I have 1 share that anyone can use, but I wanted to limit how much data can go on that share.
Yes to snapshots, some are daily, some only what there is a change in the share.
The slowdown is only during a backup task.
Another problem I noticed yesterday, I recently upgraded from 6.9.1 to 6.9.3, since then when I use Chrome to go to NAS GUI it will connect to admin page breifly, then I get the "conntecting to the ReadyNAS Page..." message. Explore connects to NAS GUI just fine.
Hi FG
If you can disable Quotas, adjust snapshot schedules and run volume maintenance we might experience improived performance.
Regarding the issue after updating, you may want to try and reboot your NAS and let it sit for a few minutes while connected on the internet.
How is your data volume doing? Have you checked how full it is right now? using the logs it shows at 73% full. Hope everything's fine.

Can you elaborate on what you mean by "How is your data volume doing"
