Trying to reproduce again, found that it is caused by permissions issues.
From VSFTPD documentation: Anonymous FTP root have to be read-only for 
anonymous user
(ftp).

This implies that only subfolders of ftp root can have write permission, and it 
will
only work with ext2/ext3 filesystems, because they properly obey file/folder 
permissions.

Solution:
Log onto the NAS via telnet/ssh , change to FTP root folder and give permission 
to
ftp user or everyone on the desired subfolder (that must reside on and ext2/ext3
filesystem).

Example:

# cd /usb
# ls -l
drwxrwxrwx   16 root     root        12288 Apr 18 23:03 sda1
# cd sda1
# ls -l
drwxr-xr-x    2 root     root           40 Apr 18 23:27 readonly
drwxr-xr-x    2 root     root           40 Apr 18 23:27 write
# chmod 777 write
# ls -l
drwxr-xr-x    2 root     root           40 Apr 18 23:27 readonly
drwxrwxrwx    2 root     root           40 Apr 18 23:27 write

Will wait for confirmation before closing the issue.
