While the ReadyNASis able to write to NTFS partitions it doesn't - due to limitations in the driver used - support all of NTFS's features, most prominently ACLs. To get that support and also speed up your backups to USB drives I'd recommend reformatting the drive using the ext3 or ext4 format. Be aware however that neither of these can be read on a Windows machine natively. You'd need a Linux or a Mac system to be able to read from those drives without buying a special file system driver.

Ok, I understand. I tried to copy the .xls-files in another name and delete the original and finally the backup-job finished so I have to decide if I want to read the files from a PC or not in the future... Maybe I will by a Mac in the future and then reformat the drive to extX...
Thanks a lot for this help Stefan!
Best,
