Unable to use ReadyNAS 6.10.4 TimeMachine after MacOS upgrade to 11.1 (BigSur)
For whatever reason, either something in MacBooks latest operating system upgrade (BigSur 11.1) or in ReadyNAS 6.10.4 does not allow the TimeMachine feature on the RN316xx box to function properly. ...
AFP is deprecated, I think. You must use SMB for Time Machine with Big Sur.
Apple has changed things again in Big Sur, I think.
I’m still using an older version of Mac OS.
The ReadyNAS uses BTRFS.
There are some suggestions in e.g. https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/666293
You could try making changes to your smb.conf.overrides file (create it if it does not exist). The location of this file is mentioned in SMB.conf. The overrides file should survive firmware updates, settings changes in the GUI etc.
