Please don't the same question many times!

Predictable, performance and resources don't allow any more or less efficient AV processing.

In ReadyNAS 6.10.0 the Antivirus app was removed from RN104 because of "Bug Fix" with no further explanation.
In ReadyNAS 6.10.1 it has NOT been restored.
This does not look like a bug fix, it looks like it was abrogated - which is a very serious reduction in specification.
When will the antivirus app be restored?
I purchased my RN104 specifically because it came with antivirus.

Unfortunately, it won't be restored.  There is an explanation here:

The minimum requirement for the current implementation of AntiVirus is exceeding the physical ram that is available in the 100 series units. There were a number of issues related to performance and software (application) stability that we are not able to resolve with the limitations in the available physical ram in these units.
