ReadyNAS 2100 files become unavailable when deleting files
When I delete files, the share in windows become unavailable, and subsequent files are reported as "can't find file xx" by windows. If I wait a couple of second, reconnect everything is online again.
If I delete files one at the time, it usually works fine.
I have about 250 folders with files around 50mb that I want to delete, but I can't. if I try to dele the folder, the same problem occurs.
firmware is RAIDiator 4.2.17
mainly working with windows server 2008 R2
RAIDiator-x86 4.2.17 is very old firmware. Have you considered updating the firmware?

I can't tell you why it's happening, but I will suggest you try it in the GUI instead of via SMB.
And how do I do that? Do I install a client software on my machine? It has no access to the internet, but it's possible to transfer files to it. What is it called?
You just go to https://ip.of.the.nas/admin in your browser (using the real local IP address, of course). Or find the NAS in RAIDar (/ReadyNAS-Downloads) and click on "Setup" in RAIDar 4.x or "Admin Page" in 6.x. I'm a little stale on OS 4.2.x, but you should be able to find the shares page where you can access the files. If you have HTTP and/or HTTPS user access turned on, you can go directly to the shares page instead of the admin page.
