SABnzbd seems to struggle with full season NZBs that contain multiple PAR and RAR sets. When that happens to me I just change Processing to Download only then manually repair/extract.

You can manually repair using Quickpar, and then extract using any unrar tool. Winrar for example.

I don't use a NAS, so I can't help you there. I'm certain there are utilities you can use on that, but someone else will have to chime in on what they are.

great ok tx. so i got Quickpar to work on the par 2 file. but out of 20 parts 1 is giving an error saying "invalid checksum cannot be recovered"

does this mean i need to delete the data downloaded and try again ? or still something else can be done ?
