folder

My home video files are stored under the Photo folder of DSM rather than under the Video folder which are only reserved for downloaded movies. When accessing the mapped Photo folder in Windows 10 or Photo Station, all home video files therein are visible and playable. However when accessing...

I have an old Android tablet that I have used for years to stream random pictures from a shared photo folder on my Synology NAS. I used an app called PhotoCloud, which worked pretty well. Now the screen on the tablet is going out and I wanted to repurpose an ipad to take over the job. Unlike...

Hi, I've got a question regarding Shared Folder Sync. I have 2 identical Synology DS1819+ systems running btrfs. My intent is to backup the first unit's files (Wally) to the second (Wally2). The second unit was originally populated as a shared folder sync from the first. Each NAS now has...

I have been using my Synology NAS for a few years but I am a relative novice. My business uses our NAS as a shared internal project data source for our employees. We have a regular folder structure for every project. I'd like to setup one of these sub-folders to sync to a read only drive...

I have the package for SABnzbd installed from SynoCommunity. This has always worked nicely. However, after the last update (2.3.9-41), after the download it fails with a "cannot create final folder" error. I have read and understand the new system with the sc-download group. This group has...

Greetings, Hope everybody is alright and well. I just want to ask how to delete the #snapshot folder. I have Min.IO server setup on our Syno through docker and it doesn't like any additional folders within its data mount. Thank you!

Background: DSM last ver: 6.2.3-25426-2 Drive Server last ver: 2.0.2-11078 Team folder contains 8 folders for the Drive services Multi OS Drive clients in operation, also web Drive client Drive desktop clients (Win/Ubuntu) in last ver Behavior: - 7 folders from 8 are running in normal operation...

I hoped to collect Task Scheduler's output results under my administrator's /home/logs folder... but (oddly?) the /home path isn't available for this, allowing access only to shared folders. Since the setting says... Note: This function is applicable to user-defined scripts only. it seems...

I would like to be able to mount a remote folder (CIFS / SMB), perform an rsync, and dismount the folder. If not all that, at least check if the folder is mounted and mount it if not already mounted. (I've already got the rsync script running.) I have no trouble mounting the folder using the...

Inside each user folder on my DS218+ NAS is a folder called "Drive". I have looked everywhere and haven't found anything about it. What the purpose of this folder

That's it. Seems simple - I (& colleagues) want to be able to select one or more folders in a local directory, right click and sync TO a selectable folder within a predefined "Team" directory on my NAS. There seem to be a lot of sync & backup apps & tricks but I haven't found this simple - &...

I'm moving some files (in some folders) from one shared folder to another. I've dragged 'n' dropped in File Station. Currently running at ~120 KB/sec. That seems a bit slow. I thought Btfrs copied 'instantly' like Apple's APFS. I have just under 400 GB to copy, its going to take over a day?

OK so Drive looks awesome. But I have a folder issue on setup... On going through the first setup, I get to the screen "the selected folders on your comp and NAS will be synchronized" and I can seem only allowed to select a single NAS folder. So I go ahead and select my movie folder then...

I can actually share individual files with Drive and they do not require downloading via an app. They can just be downloaded via the web browser. However, when I send a link to a folder via text, my friend sees this. I want this to work kind of like sharing links in Dropbox works. I don't...

Hi all, I'm using the Shared Folder Sync feature to replicate shared folders between 2 NAS devices (shocker!). The problem I'm having is that the permissions on the replicated folders (on the 'target' NAS) are changed or reset after each sync. I want to be able to access / copy data from the...

I'm running solidworks engineering simulations on my PC. For 6 months, I'd been saving the results to a local folder on my hard drive that was also synced to my NAS. I have versioning active on my NAS, so it tracks changes made to the files on my NAS but doesn't plug up my PC hard drive. This...

Hello to everyone, I had a DS214 for many years and I was very happy with its features. But I needed more space and more disks, so I upgraded to DS918 + a few days ago. And because I try to make the most of my equipment, I also started using also the Docker and in it jacobalberty UniFi...

Hello, As I patiently wait for the 2020+ series Synology NAS drives to arrive, I am trying to learn all that I can so that I am prepared when it comes time to configure. The main goal of my NAS will be to store many pictures. While this is not my only goal, it's what is driving the purchase...

I read somewhere that there might be conflicts (even corruptions) when starting up as the Homes folder (being encrypted) is not mounted while the Drive package is starting up. Any input is appreciated.

I'm looking for the most straightforward method to perform one-way sync of about 30TB between a DS3617xs and a DS3018xs (both with Btrfs) on a 10G Local Network. Mostly archived media files with occasional additions - and very rare deletions. We require a (read-only) 'mirror' image of the...
