I want to move a bunch of folders and files from a Server 2008 to a new Synology NAS. I tried two methods (backup and custom copy) configured to preserve dates. Both method failed. It appears that XYplorer is unable to determine the size of the NAS drive (6TB RAID10 4 hard drives).
I copied a folder from the server to the NAS (\\NAS Device\test folder) in windows explorer, then I right click folder and left click properties within XYplorer and it reported the right size of the folder. When I tried to custom copy the folder on the NAS (\\NAS Device\test folder) to another location on the same NAS (\\NAS Device\dest folder\ ) expecting the result (\\NAS Device\dest folder\test folder), it gave me the same error that the target drive does not have enough space.
What did I do wrong?

When you are somewhere on the drive the free bytes should be shown in the left section of the status bar. Is the correct value shown?

Thank you for your response. The status bar does show the correct amount of free space on the NAS (~ 6TB).

Not sure yet why it does not work.
Please run this script through the address bar. Does it return the correct free space?
Code: Select all
echo get("freespace", "\\NAS Device\test folder");
