Hi all, i have a qnapTS228 which soon after buying many years ago began withdrawing support for some of its features aswell as its cloud access being hacked and so this feature was unuseable. Synology has directed me through its selector to the DS425+ and the DS925+ . What i would like to know...

Hi everyone, My DS923+ seemed to have suffered from some sort of sudden technical issue while being turned on 24/7 for the last 9 months without any issues or warning signs beforehand. The unit is running four enterprise grade WD 22TB Ultrastar DC HC570 in SHR2 with BRTFS with no reported...

Has anyone installed Beszel. It's a container used to monitor the nas. Trying it using the yaml file however, it keeps stopping and starting. I looked at the logs but no clues. TIA

I have just enough knowledge to be dangerous to myself. Learning the basics at 70 and not doing well. I see lots of tuts but none with real details. The hardest part is learning enough to ask the right questions. You may have a great tut for someone who understands the lingo. I dont. Back in...

Could you recommend a good, reliable, durable, and very inexpensive docking station for 3.5" HDDs, 2.5" HDDs, and SSDs from AliExpress?

I have a 918+ NAS with an 8TB and 10TB WD Red, plus 2x20TB Toshiba drives. I'm considering making it a backup unit due to its age and setting up a newer NAS as a primary unit, moving the drives over if possible. Are there drive compatibility issues I should be aware of? What strategies are...

Hello to everyone. 👋 I hope I can get some specific help from here to solve a few of my NAS problems. CU.

Currently I'm utilizing gluetun to accomplish this however there's a lot of VPN encryption overhead that inherently slows everything way down utilizing this method. I'd much rather utilize an established VPN I have setup on a separate VLAN on my gateway and simply setup one of the unused...

Would appreciate feedback. I installed Jellyfin via container manager/docker. This was my first time using docker and unfortunately, did not create a project, yml file, nothing. Somehow I got it to work perfectly with my personal movie library (movies, tv shows, home videos, trailers). Updated...

I'm currently using my Synology NAS as a plex server. Utilizing Sonarr, Radarr, Ombi, Prowlarr etc. A friend who is much more adept at these things help me set it up. Container manager does a great job at updating containers with the image tag "latest" but the tags on some of my containers are...

Hey everyone, I'm freaking out, Cl0p ransomware locked up all my important files. Everything now ends with .Cl0p and there's a ClopReadMe.txt note in every folder. I haven't paid anything yet and really need to find another way to recover my data. Has anyone here dealt with Cl0p or know what...

I use Confluence at work, a lot, and am quite good at it and now I'd like to setup the same for my home office using my Synology NAS. I'm following these instructions on how to install BookStack (How to Install BookStack on Your Synology NAS) and everything seems to be setup correctly, I've...

I know that similar topics have been created by others, and I've already gone through them (most notably a recent one titled "Looking to connect two NAS together via Synology Drive ShareSync")...but, I haven't come across any that matched my potential situation. I have a DS918+, which I've...
