Hello all,
I'm an AV/IT integrator. I have a client that is replacing their DS920+ with a DS1825+ with all new drives. Other than the hardware swap, we're looking to keep everything exactly the same. I'm not necessarily concerned with the currently captured SS recordings, but I do want the...
Hey all,
Been a minute since I first got my DS920+ and it's been great for my needs which include PLEX, GIT archiving, and Synology Photos and general file storage. I started out with two 4TB drives and that shortly changed to two 4TB drives then two 12TB drives, then all four bays using 12TB...
Out of nowhere my DS920+ stopped working while trying to work on a project.
Then I went to my DSM and it is asking me to set up my DS920+ !
Why?
Its been running with no issues for about 4 years now. I looked around and I found this...
Hi, I'm a new forum member with a DS920+. I've had it setup for a couple of years, simply backing up devices and photos. DSM Version 7.2.2-72806 update 4.
I tried to setup a web server and it is running, but I'm lost from here. I installed WordPress but I'm at a loss for use. Can I simply...
Hi All,
Not sure if this is the correct section for this.
I recently purchased a Canon MF643Cdw and am trying to configure it to scan to my NAS.
What I have tried so far is:
use the IP Address as the Hostname instead of the actual hostname of the NAS.
put the path as follows...
I installed the 3x20TB EXOS drives in my new DS1821+ and have been playing with Jellyfin instead of PLEX, the first installation did not go well
but the 2nd one seems to be working well but I have only put a couple of files and folders onto it so far.
Late last night the fans on the DS920+...
Hi everyone,
I'm new to this forum and excited to be here!
Currently running a DS920+ along with a MR2200ac router. I'm using it for backups, file sharing, and experimenting with several Synology apps and Docker containers. Still learning the ins and outs of DSM and always curious to discover...
First time using a Synology unit, purchased a ds920+ a few years back and have enjoyed working with it since. It's been a great unit and primarily used only for file storage/photos/Plex and GIT. I've used compatible Seagate ironwolf drives from the Synology official list and haven't had any...
Hi guys,
I have a DS920+ NAS. It has 2 Seagate Ironwolf 8Tb drives installed in a RAID1 configuration. It has a single 3Tb drive in its own volume too. All are BTRFS volumes.
I recently did a DSM Update, and after the DSM Update, all volumes were showing as crashed and inaccessible. Synology...
Hi,
I bought the one of last batch of DS920+, upgraded the RAM, added SSD, and I am pretty happy with it overall using it as 1. Plex server, 2. Backup
However, it has TWO things that I think is need of an upgrade:
1. BETTER CPU/GPU for Plex 4K playing
- while it does OK today, with more and...
Hi,
I currently have a DS920+, with 2x6TB WD Red (Plus), and 1x12TB Red Plus. I intend to add a new drive 12TB or larger, and in a few months will retire one 6TB to an old desktop. So, could have room for another.
Question is WHICH NAS drive larger than 12TB is quietest?!
My older 6TB Red...
My NAS is currently running DSM 7.2.1-69057 Update 5 and indicates it is "up to date". DSM 7.2.2 has been out a while now, so I'm curious as to why I'm not seeing a notification. I know that the rollout varies by model and geo, but just wondering as it has been a while now. I am in UK, if that...
I have managed to reformat (to exFAT) the troublesome Ironwolf 16TB drive that seems to have been messed up by the failure of the Bay #1 of my DS920+. My devices are:
1 Windows 10 desktop computer
1 DS220+
1 DS920+ (With an inoperatable Bay #1)
1 DS1621+ (Brand new)
5 Seagate Ironwolf 16TB HDs...
I have a DS920+ no longer under warranty that Bay #1 has failed. I’ve done a lot of testing and received a lot of advice on this failure and am sure it is the bay that has failed not the HD in it. I have 5 16TB Ironwolf 3.5” drives that I have used. I believe 1 may have been fried by the bay...
I have an 18 month old DS920+ 4 bay. About two months ago, storage manger indicted Disk 1 failed. I have Raid 10 on the system so it continued to work. I now suspect that rather than Disk 1 HD failure it was a failure of #1 drive bay. Is there any way to check whether my suspicion is correct?
So, my 3mos Extended Smart test on one of my drives (6TB Red Plus) on DS920+ is NOT finishing the job, goes through 10-90% in over a few hours, then STUCK at 90% for 8hrs (still stuck). The other drive (same 6TB Red plus) ended the test hours ago.
Is that a bad sign? As far as I can tell...
How to Make Your Synology 4-Bay NAS Cooler and Quieter in Just 20 Minutes!
The appeal of having your very own private cloud space, accessible much more securely and faster than the average third-party cloud service, is undeniable. Purchasing a Synology DS923+, DS423+, DS920+ or DS420+ NAS to...
Need some advice on reconfiguring my DS920+, DSM 7.2.1.
I have had this for a couple of years and it has served well primarily as a PleX media server and media storage unit. Previously had a two drive WD PR2100. Although the majority of space and processing is dedicated to PleX I also have a...
Hello everyone,
I’m having trouble accessing the control panel of my Synology DS920+. Whenever I try to open it, it gets stuck on the loading bar and never open. Since the latest DSM updates, I’ve had this issue before, but clearing the cache helped me access the panel. However, this time I...
I have a DS920+ with 4 16TB drives manually configured as RAID 10 (may have been a mistake). I have reached 87% utilization, so I need to expand. I have been through the Synology support section with little luck. I did not use SHR.
1) Is it possible to replace (a drive at a time) two of the...
