Do you access the NAS via SMB or iSCSI?
Surely, there are people out there with RAID5 volumes larger than 8TB and Windows 7. Like in corporate environment, users often have access to a large SMB share... The SMB client is not aware of the "type" of volume on the NAS. So I would believe the issue to be elsewhere.
Any logs on the NAS?
JAKOLANTASH,
Many Thanks for your kindness in replying.
I have resolved the issue, Ready Cloud was not connected to the web when i installed the disc.
For some reason, now Ive connected ready cloud, I can see the disc, and am able to map it.
Oddly, it didnt want to work when the system was offline from the web, the system had to be web connected.
very odd indeed.
Thank you again for your kind help.
