I don't have an answer for you but I have posted about this problem several times before and never got an answer.
This is one of the threads:
I have factory defaulted my unit several times as this seem the only way to clear the read-only file sytem error.
I have pretty much isolated the cause to ReadyDR -the unit ran normally for 2 months recently and within 10 days of activating ReadyDR jobs I have the dreaded read-only filesytem error. I have run memory tests and extended disk tests on all disks.
Interestingly once the error appears I can delete the ReadyDR jobs, but not the ReadyDR shares - I get a "failed due to snapshot deletion failure "error
I am running OS 6 Ready DR on a legacy unit which may be why I haven't had much interest from Netgear, perhaps now that there are others with similar issues on newer machines we may get an answer.
I have logs if anyone interested.
Another factory default coming up and I'm abandoning ReadyDR.

Support has got a case that they suspect might be related (though something that appears to be related at first glance may prove to be quite different).
