Windows 10 PCs mapped drives dropping to ReadyNAS 626x
Hi! I have a ReadyNAS 626x (ver 6.10.1) serving a mapped drive to a Windows 10 workstation. The mapped drive has been frequently dropping lately, which is (obviously) causing problems. Data ...
Thanks for the reply!
According to what I can see on the ReadyNAS, all drives are healthy. I also did not see any indications of filesystem or drive problems in the logs.

FWIW, the SMART stats on my failed drive looked healthy too. But smartctl -x showed some unrecoverable errors, and when I tested the drive with lifeguard it failed. However, smartctl -x also showed similar errors on two other drives. I replaced one of those others, and found that lifeguard passed it. I left the other in service, but am watching it closely.
While I'm not certain how much weight to put on the smartctl -x info, I think it is worth looking at (and testing the drives that show these errors). Though I'd normally expect to see a disk or btrfs error around the time of the connection drop.
Also, have you looked at ethernet stats on the switch (and the NAS)?
Switch is showing no errors or other issues on the NAS or workstation ports.
Also ran smartctl -x on all drives, again no issues.
Very frustrating!
Thanks...
