Connecting to trusted, unsecure device
I have a Netgear Readynas attached storage device. I am unable to connect to this device using Firefox. I encounter : Error code: SSL_ERROR_UNSUPPORTED_VERSION
It is not an dangerous site, it is my network storage device.
Is there a way to configure Firefox to connect to this device? Thanks for any help

This can happen if that NAS devices only supports TLS 1,0 and 1.1 and doesn't meet the current requirement to support TLS 1.2 or 1.3. Isn't there an update available for the firmware of this device to support TLS 1.2 or newer ?
There is still a way to override this and re-enable support for those older TLS versions, but this is not recommended. If you want to proceed then you should only use this when you need to access this NAS device and not for visiting websites.
- about:config => security.tls.version.enable-deprecated = true
You should reset this pref after you are done with this device.
You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. If you get the warning page, you can click the "Accept the Risk and Continue" button.

As said it is not recommended to do it for security reasons except temporarily. https://hacks.mozilla.org/2020/02/its-the-boot-for-tls-1-0-and-tls-1-1/
