Superandrea,
Your ReadyNAS isn't part of a domain right? I think your PS3 is setting the file permissions to root/root.

This option is useful in cases where you are changing security levels and need to workaround file access problems." This will reset the permissions back to full access. If that does not work enable FTP service and set Read/Write access for FTP service on the USB device then ftp to the ReadyNAS and use the chmod -R 777 USB-SHARE to set full access to that share.
