Readynas 104 drops out when copying to it

A guy from 3rd level support (and an R&D guy who wrote the file system) in China is currently remote accessing my computer and the Readynas and playing with the file system trying to find a solution. I've wasted days of my time on this so hopefully they find a solution fairly quickly, I guess a firmware update will follow... or a refund!
Hi perkij,
Any outcome ?
Have degradedd mine to 4x2TB disks, from 4x4TB, already copied 2.75TB which is bit over the 50% at a speed of 32-33MB/S with no drops so far.
Copy continues.
Will see when it will reach the 70% or so.
