My DS918+ (out of warranty) had to be rebooted and now it does not start anymore unless been switched off for few hours without power. When I press power on the blue power button blinks and fans start - but nothing else, not even output from UART unless the RAM is removed. I have removed all...

Older Dell 5767 running Win 11, when attempting to boot a "Restore" (active backup for business) USB flash drive, the wrong file system and boot file name in BIOS is called. The system ignores the flash and boots the hard drive instead. Boots to \BOOTMGFW.EFI should boot to \BOOTX64.EFI Same...

Hello everyone! I recently bought a used Synology 918+ online. It came without a power brick, no memory, and—worst of all—no guarantee that it even worked. At first glance, it looked brand new: clean fans, no scratches, no visible damage. So, I took the risk and ordered a 4GB Synology memory...

[RESOLVED] Need help badly. Was learning about certificates, reverse proxy etc., was playing with firewall settings and I locked myself out of my DS418play. Did the 4 second soft boot, heard the beep. I plugged my Linux laptop directly into the port, Downloaded and installed Synology...

Hi, I'm having a strange problem with my Synology DS1621xs+ Virtual Machine: I want to install a Win11 VM, so I downloaded the correct Win11 ISO, I created a new VM with UEFI bios, 4GB RAM, 4CPU and 128GB HD and selected the Win11 ISO. However, after starting the VM and arriving at the "press...

Apologies for asking for help with an ancient, by Internet standards, NAS. We've been running a DS1812+ forever (backed up with a DS416j). I turned the device off to replace a (non-failing) drive and it won't reboot. After searching various forums, I replaced the power supply and the CMOS...

How can I automatically power up a VM when I boot up the NAS? I had a look at the VMM interface, but I found only settings regarding the shutdown not the boot-up procedure...

Hi, Some days ago, my DS918+ never booted up successfully after a sudden reboot (blue light blinking endlessly and all other lights are off), with and without hard disks. When I connect the power, the NAS starts blinking without pressing the power button and the fans are spinning (after a...

Hello, I have an odd one here today. A DS1815+ come to repair for blinking blue light. It looks like simple 100ohm fix isnt it? I thought the same as there was no resistor installed. So i did the usual fix application and nicely cleaned everything and closed up. Yes you guessed right it didnt...

Hi all, I have a 1821+ that was running fine. After installing a Emulex OneConnect OCe11102, it wont boot (blue flashing power led). After removing the card, the NAS boots just fine. The card itself is OK, it is usable in other systems. I know it is not in the compatibility list, but it is for...

A few hours ago I got an automated email saying the connection to my DS1019+ has been lost, and when I checked the NAS itself it was turned off. When I try to turn it back on again, i can hear a faint whirring from the fan and the blue power button light blinks for a while, then it simply goes...

Hi everyone. I've had a NAS for years, it's a custom thing, built in a converted ATX case using a micro ATX board, AMD cpu, 16gb ram. It has 4 drives in it with 9Tb capacity. I have no idea what model it is as my late brother originally set it up as he was a computer software wizard, but he did...

Hello all ! Since a couple years ago, I had to change my DS218+ in emergency due to a boot loop of the Synology in production. I kept the old one to try to repair it when I'll the time to do it and... the time has come ! So, I have a DS218+ booting in loop. When I plug the power connector, I...

I’ve had a DA916+ for a few years now. Initially, I had it set up and working well. Then, after changing from Android to apple phones I never got around to using it with the new phones. So, it has sat unplugged for awhile now. When I turn it on, it just starts beeping. I have 2 drives...

For what it is worth, with even more than the usual precautions, the SSD vs HDD boot disk comparison: https://www.backblaze.com/blog/are-ssds-really-more-reliable-than-hard-drives/ Interesting to see these statistics develop. My average SSD age is with 4 years higher than Backblaze :-) no...

My RT2600AC's boot speed has decreased to the point where my Security System now shows that it takes at least 3 minutes to re-boot the router, from signal loss to the time the signal comes back. Even after I can bring up the log-on page for the router, I get a message that the router is busy...

TL;DR: "How do I mount/open a vdisk for a VM that doesn't boot?" I want to access files directly from inside the vdisk without it running the VM that was on it. I don't care if I have to access it from Synology NAS CLI or if I have to copy the vdisk image to my local machine to do so. More...
