Slow SMB access on Windows 10

Hello everyone and merry Christmas,

I have a ReadyNAS 102 with 6.4.1 firmware. In the last few months, after updating to Windows 10, accessing my photo archive (several folders for year/album) from a Samba share has become incredibly slow, browsing the folders takes several seconds, and most photo browsers (zoner studio, olympus viewer, etc.) hang when trying to open the NAS.

RIght now it's impossible for me to access my photos.

What could be the problem? Any suggestions?

Thank you very much.


Stefano

      Hello tripuz,

       

      Welcome to the community!

       

      You might want to try BETA 6.4.2-T59.​

        Thank you for your suggestion, but turning off the antivirus did work; do you think I should update to the new beta, or wait for a final release?

        Thank you again. Regards

      Thank you very much, turning off the antivirus did solve the problem, now my NAS is fast again!

      I hope this will be fixed in the next release...
