Assuming the NAS has more than one drive, if Roon happens to be on drive areas that are not faulty, and the Synology system has not found whatever the fault is, that could happen. I can't be sure, but I believe that the NAS relies on the SMART capability of the drive for its information.
Simon is the expert, but I cannot think of anything in MinimServer that could cause the fault you describe. If you had a corrupt MinimServer or Java installation, it seems unlikely that MinimServer would run at all and give you the green icon you have in MinimWatch. But removing and reinstalling MinimServer and Java might help in the short term. Longer term, I'd guess that you are in practice waiting to for the Synology to tell you which drive is on the blink. I trust that you have a backup of the NAS.

Thks David, yes it's a four drive 412+, I've sent a Help to Synology and I do have back ups I rotate monthly, one offsite.
