Hello. I have two DS1515+ units I'd like to connect together to make one big storage pool. Looking for either a physical connection between the units - if possible, or a software solution through DSM or some other method.
Not really as well versed on this as I'd like. But I've just retired...
Posted this before, probably around the time of impending time change…..
Wouldn’t it be nice, IF:
The NAS NTP time server had the option of setting the: “Spring Ahead - Fall Back” Time changes automatically…….

Today I started getting repeated messages from my DS418 NAS:
The IP conflict of [192.168.20.11] occurred at the interface LAN 1 on DS418 by [82:B3:53:DD:3D:11]. To fix this issue, check your network settings.
Unfortunately, the advice to check my network settings is far from helpful.

I have a DS423+ with three identical 20TB drives that I am going to set up. I would like to have 4TB of the capacity reserved for backing up files and documents in one storage pool (RAID5). The remaining (and majority) of storage capacity will be ripped BlueRay movies where I already have the...
