Yes, the SSH closes after anywhere from 30sec - 15min. I also just switched, in context of troubleshooting, to a different Macbook, with the same result. Frequently, after the connection closes, it cannot be reopened without rebooting the ReadyNAS.
It's quite frustrating, as I've been trying since early July to move data off of the Drobo onto the ReadyNAS, and I feel I'm making very little progress.
