Ah that would explain the problem.
Create a new share e.g. TMtemp
Login to CIFS as admin, and browse to the hidden ".timemachine" folder on the C share, you can do this by in the Finder selecting Go > Connect to Folder and typing "/Volumes/c/.timemachine"
Then also open in another Finder window /Volumes/c/TMtemp and move the sparsebundle to the TMtemp share. Then go into Frontview and delete the TMtemp share. This will get the NAS to delete the sparsebundle which is much faster than deleting it across your network.
