ReadyNas 102 unresponsive when accessing from win7
Hi, I recently upgraded from a ReadyNas Duo V1 to a ReadyNas 102 and I'm having some weird issues with the 102 that I hope someone can help me with. The 102 is configured with 2 Seagate ST4000DM00...
Ok, so I've been playing around with the 102, changing configurations and things. I guess the cause of my problem is the Anti-Virus after all. I un-installed the additional App thinking that would disable the Anti-Virus but I didn't know I had to go into System->Settings to turn off the built-in Anti-Virus.
Once I turned it off I was able to browse the shares from my Win7 PCs. Just to make sure it wasn't a fluke, I toggled the anti-virus on and off and few more times. Each time the anti-virus was enabled it would pretty much freeze up.
So I guess for now I'm just going to leave the anti-virus off. But yeah, kind of disappointed. In my opinion, Netgear should have disabled this feature in the 102 series since it seems like it makes the NAS un-useable, at least for me
