ReadyNas 102 really slow using file explorer
I have a ReadyNas 102
firmware 6.4.2
Running x-raid
2 SATA 3TB drives
The readynas is on my wired home network
accessed by 2 windows 10 machines
Recently, when I try to use file explorer to navigage the Nas, its become really slow and sometimes file explorer just hangs. Each time I navigate to a directory on the Nas its a crap shoot if its going hang or go into the directory. Its seems like the greater the number of files in the directory the more likely file explorer will hang.
Also, within windows 10, the Nas only shows up under network on only one computer.
I've rebooted the NAS
I've rebooted the window 10 machines
I've gone into the NAS admin pages and everything looks OK
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Jay
Hi jstrauss,
Welcome to the community!
Try disabling the AV feature of the ReadyNAS and test accessing your files again.
Let us know if this resolves the issue.

When you wrote AV, I thought you meant Audio Visual :) - So I turned off everything I thought was related to streaming or media.
I just realized you meant Anti-Virus.
I turned off the anti-virus service and that seemed to work.
Thanks
