ReadyNAS 426 - 6.9.3-RC1 - Just to report that MacOs 10.13 machines seem to work fine with SMB as does my old 10.12 machine. I could not get the 10.13 machines to back up faster than <10Gb a day on AFP when I was on 6.9.2

You could perhaps update to ReadyNASOS 6.9.3-T223 (Beta 2), configure the ReadyNAS to use SMB for Time Machine and see if that is any quicker.

Interesting thought - the other think I might try is to fire up an old 10.12 machine and see what that does first. I've had a look at the Beta and the 426 is not specifically mentioned in the i386 section. Did they forget it ?

I did the 'fire up an old machine on 10.12 trick. Added a new personal time machine and set it going. It's backed up about 1.5 Gb in the last 10 minutes - It looks like it's a 10.13 High Sierra Issue
