Readynas 104 drops out when copying to it
I have a readynas 104 configured with four 4tb drives in raid 5. I've managed to copy about 6tb onto the device without issue but now whenever I go to copy something onto the box, lets say a single 4...
I've tried to change filesystem...
- Moved all my data to another nas (a lot of time, but moved all at 60MB/s)
- deleted array
- recreated array and immediatilly substituted the file system (BRTFS) with EXT4
- waited a lot of time to done the reconstruction (29 H)
- moved back the data (a very lot of time...)
First, the bad news:
- the web gui doesn't support the creation of shares. Don't know why but it return an error with a function (if soneone is interested i can take a screenshot)
- the web gui discard all change made by hand if some service si restarted by gui
- Service like SAMBA, FTP, DLNA MUST be configured by hand
- ssh + systemd is the only way to manage the system
Good news:
- moved back all the data done without any problem by FTP (NAS 2 NAS with cat6 cross cable)
- moved other (2 file, 1 of 19GB and another of 3GB) data from my pc by samba without problem.
Write speed: ~36MB/s
System Load: ~2.5 (is high...)
Conclusions:
EXT4 > BRTFS for this NAS. Maybe on intel core i5 NAS it work like a charm...but on that it slowdown system to become unstable.
For me, no problem to use shell access to edit the system configuration, but for a normal users maybe a BIG TROUBLE.

ps: my NAS is a RN104 with 4x 3TB WD RED
ps2: sorry for my bad english!! :P
