ReadyNAS Duo V1 file share permissions broken, can't create/delete files

Had my ReadyNAS Duo V1 for a few years now.  File share permissions were working fine.  Now, as of a couple weeks ago, I can't write or delete files from the shares.  I still have read permissions it seems.  I can copy files from the share but not to the share.  I tried resetting the read/write share permissions using Advanced Settings from FrontView, but still broken.

    Do you mean reallocated sectors?

     

    Pending sectors and command timeouts also matter.

    Volume scan just fixes issus w/ the file system, not the disk, right?

     


    Yes.  And it is possible for the file system to have issues even when the disks are healthy.  One scenario for this is when the NAS power is cut (so there is no clean shutdown).

        Do you have any idea of what might have triggered this problem?  Also, are you using the default "everyone" permissions?

         

        Assuming you are using Windows, try running CMD on the PC and enter

        net use * /delete

        net use t: \\nas-ip-address\C /user:admin nas-admin-password

         

        Be careful on the typing (both spaces and the slash direction), and of course use the real IP address and admin password.

         

        The first command ends any open network sessions; the second attempts to mount the NAS C volume as drive letter T.  If there's a confirmation prompt on the first command, let it proceed.

         

        Let us know if this gives you write access.
