I reproduced the issue when try to access NAS via SAMBA in linux OS,
The issue hppen on ARM NAS only, x86 NAS is OK.
Thanks for your report,
The issue will be fixed if you change ""vfs objects = aio_linux acl_xattr snapper btrfs" to " vfs objects = acl_xattr snapper btrfs" in smb.conf. Samba
Steps,
1. Enable SSH in Admin GUI settings,
2. Access to NAS via SSH, user: root, password is your password when login admin GUI,
3. Run comand " vi /etc/frontview/samba/smb.conf.Samba",
4. Press "i" key on PC's keyboard,
5. Change "vfs objects = aio_linux acl_xattr snapper btrfs" to "vfs objects = acl_xattr snapper btrfs"
6. Press "Shift" + "!" key on keyboard, and input "wq" to save the configure
if you don't know how to change the config, could do you please let me remote access to your NAS via secure diagnostic mode and help you change it?
How to enable secure diagnostic,

Thank you for the reply, but do you know if the Beta will not have the SMB problem?
Edit# just see the linux part is okay then, but not recommended to go Beta... and no way back from Beta, until the new firmware comes out...
So will skip this part, hope there will be another way around this problem.
thnx

Just for anyones interest.
It was mentioned that this fix was for ARM based systems. I have an x86 based system with the same issue and this fix worked for me.
