Hi, Not sure where the correct place is to post this. If it should be elsewhere, please point me in the right direction. I have a new Synology DS218Play to add more storage to my media collection. I already have 7 other Synology 2-bay NAS units. All of which, I have setup fine previously...

Just setting up my NAS. I set up a shared folder called "Media". Then I set up SMB. When I mount the NAS in finder using SMB I can see the "Homes" folder and the "Home" folder but not the Media folder. I've checked the permissions and they are all read write for me. Any suggestions?

Is there a way to delete or hide the default shared folders (video, pictures, music) from the media server, when I view media from webos lg TV I actually want to hide them and show only my custom folders that I created.

I have terabytes of personal media on my synology and wondering if it would best be protected on a shared folder, formatted as WORM. I use C2 to back up and want to make sure they can read WORM folders and back those up as well. Any suggestions? It sounds like WORM will, in theory protect my...

Hello, can I initially install one 8TB Seagate Ironwolf HDD (listed in the compatibility list) in the 1522+ NAS and then later on, replace it with a Samsung 2.5" SATA 4TB SSD or vice versa? I will make sure that I will do it before reaching 4TB as it is obvious that a 4TB drive cannot hold more...

So I am an idiot. I have used four different Synology NAS boxes in the past to set up Plex Media Servers for family members. My sisters NAS was old and it died so I decided to get her a replacement. I assumed that the newer Synology NAS boxes would take a simple Plex Media Server install and I...

, (if I post on a Kodi forum I get pro Kodi, and if I post on a RR (Sonarr) style forum I get pro RR) I’ll post here if some have insight or can point me to a more appropriate platform neutral site for input: Love Jellyfin through Docker for media. Clean, no fuss, no extra distractions...

I have been using Active Backup for Business on my DS220+ Synology NAS for the past several months to backup the Windows 10 Pro computers on my home network. I have used individual file restore at least a few times without any issues but I haven't tried to do a Bare Metal Restore. Recently, I...

I couldn't find any information regarding my issue so I decided to ask here. Is there any known problem about using the wifi with active backup restore media? I decided to give a try to Active Backup for Business in order to backup my PCs in home (Windows 11 systems) to my DS923+ (using...

We're setting up a 'satellite' DS923+ with Web Station on an NVMe storage pool --- and Media Server on a RAID0 storage pool with 4x Samsung 870 QVO SSDs (QLC). The QLC SSD pool will contain a copy of a media archive - after the initial load, there will be vastly more reads vs. writes...
