Finally setup my first NAS, OMV on an old Dell Optiplex C2D (I had the parts laying around and had been thinking about it for over a year now!)
So I decided to backup a few things to the NAS, that included a project library of different programming languages, not a big folder but it contains tons of small files.
Transferring files to and from the NAS goes fine with larger files, but transferring this folder actually leads to a BSOD because of rdbss.sys.
Of course when I understood what was causing the BSOD I made a zip of that folder and everything was fine, but that doesn't fix the underlying problem: transferring large amount of small files will cause *some* Windows (mine is 10) to BSOD.
Looking online seems to indicate the problem with the samba share is that Windows have a hard time to deal with authentication or security, nothing I tried with the folder's security actually fixed the BSOD.
Microsoft is completely useless on the issue, there is a hot fix for Windows 7, but what about other versions of Windows? Suggestions on the hot fix article varies (in case it doesn't work), my favorite being; "stop using Samba shares" ... Seriously! (Sorry can't find the link to the hot fix)
It's my first time playing around with OMV and Samba shares (I do know my way around Linux, just no clue with Samba) so I'm at a loss right now as to even how to start diagnostics...
Best solution so far (that I don't know how to implement);

Any help would be great!
