How is Nautilus accessing this remote ext4 filesystem? IOW, what do you tell it is the location? (I'm unfamiliar with Nautilus.) I'd ditch trying to copy lots. Instead, just see if you can create a new file, e.g. save a Libre Office document, on it. First at the root of it and if that fails, try inside one of the existing directories. If it appears to work, turn off the NAS and see if it's still there when turned back on. If that's OK, do a similar test but trying to create a new directory (folder) instead. Does the NAS offer a means to check the filesystems, e.g. through its web interface? Perhaps the NAS is switching the FS to read-only due to detecting errors as it starts to write.
