Stephen, thank for the reply. I will attempt to move the files anc create the soft links, that may be above my Linux expertise but I will try - I do have SSH access and have basic understanding of Linux. Any Linux consultatnts I could compensate to assist if needed :)?
Thanks
The soft links (sometimes called symlinks or symbolic links) are created with the ln command.
For instance if you move a folder called foldername from /var to /apps, you'd then create the link in /var with
ln -s /apps/foldername /var/foldername
There is more info on the ln command here: http://www.computerhope.com/unix/uln.htm
Also, I assume I would use the mv command, for example mv -r -f /opt/Roonserver /apps and mv -f -r /var/roon to /apps. The crete the link, ln -s /apps/var/rooon /opt/Roonserver and ln -s /apps/roon /var/roon ?
Thanks Again!

Exactly (though I think you meant ln -s /apps/Roonserver /opt/Roonserver). You could of course use cp and then rm instead of mv.
I'd use a parent folder in /apps to keep everything together - maybe /apps/roon/roon and /apps/roon/Roonserver.
Will do and report back. Hopefully this will help others wanting to run RoonServer on the ReadyNAS.
Thanks!
