Hi everyone, I’m in the process of entering the world of NAS and this seemed like an excellent place to seek advice.

Ran into an interesting issue... For our brand-new RS1221RP+, we purchased 2 D4ES01-8G (yes, genuine Synology ECC SODIMM) and installed them. Ran just fine. But just to be sure, I went into the Synology Assistant and ran the memory test. Failed! err=1 (whatever that means). Then tried again...

Hi all, Just invested in a Synology DS1621+ and already have Plex up and running for my family to enjoy! Loving it so far and looking forward to learning as much about it as possible to extend my own knowledge and find new and innovative ways to use my new NAS device. I signed up with one...

My current UPS is an APC Smart-UPS 750 which I got hold of when the company I worked at went into liquidation. It is about 6 years old (I think) and according to its system the battery is due to hit end of life in November. Last week while on holiday we suffered a power outage of just over an...

Recently updated my internet speed which included new modem and separate router. After several hours trying to access my DS920 through the router I finally got it to work. However I'm also running Pihole. I was notified that Pihole kept restarting and I can't seem to figure out why. I stopped...

Just saying Hi! from The Netherlands, to all of the Syno-gang here! Nice to meet you. :cool:

Hi all, just purchased a DS1821+ and installed 2x 16GB CT16G4SFD8266 Crucial DIMMs. The NAS boots normally and reports all 32GB of RAM just fine. However, when running the memory test from the Synology Assistant, it fails with errors. Logging into DSM, I see the following errors from syslog...

Hi, I just returned my 1st NAS ever 220+, it worked fine, however soon realized that it wouldn't accommodate future expansion plans, so I exchanged for the 920+, knowing that it too has limitations, however as a starter NAS it is way more than I can use presently, future 2-3 years might require...

Is there a way to force or allow Synology Photos mobile app to backup to DS220 running DSM7 when not on the same local network as the NAS box?

Help? I have a DS418play that has 4x6GB discs in RAID 10, and is too full at 96%. I want more space, and have sourced 4 x 10GB discs. I am slightly less anxious than when I first set this up, so am thinking of converting to SHR ... but can't do that simply. So ... I could.... - stay with RAID 10...

Hi, Is there a release date for new SRM based on DSM 7 ? thx

Hello everyone! I've been a long time Synology user (more models than I can count) and just now moving ocer to this forum. Official Synology forum is like a ghost town. Very little engagement. I currently am using DS1621xs+ with 2 Kingston DC500M 3.84TB in a Raid 1 and 4 18TB Exos in a Raid 5...

Greetings all. :) Just received my 1st Synology; a DS1520+. Conflicted about which version of DSM I must install? 6 or 7? Input will be much appreciated. Cheerz Davoodoo

I have a DS218+ and just bought a DS920+ to upgrade. My question is: I have never used Surveillance Station on the 218+, can I use the licenses from that NAS on my new 920+ along with the two licenses for it? I am thinking about purchasing some cameras for my home and was just curious. Thanks in...

In the Synology DSM 7.0 Developer Guide I noticed the following section: Docker (since DSM7.0) Description Docker worker is made for docker package to help them easily deploy their containers without calling docker command by themselves. Docker worker use docker-compose framework, it will...

New 1621+ coming in a couple days and I’m trying to figure out which HDD’s to use and which RAID configuration. It’s replacing an old DS412+ with 4x4TB HGST 7200RPM drives. I was initially planning for 8TB drives but the the cost of anything above 6TB has skyrocketed in the last couple weeks...

I am brand new to the world of NAS. I just bought and installed a 220j with two 6TB Seagate Iron Wolf 5700 rpm drives. My primary purpose was to replace an Apple Airport Time Capsule for backup of a household of MACOS and IOS devices although I realize that a NAS has a lot more potential than...

I set up my nas yesterday, it seemed to be ok but then bad stuff started happening. not sure if it's faulty or what but I'm having some problems. I wanted to use it as a home seedbox mostly. 1. most annoying problem, there is a knocking sound every 3-5 seconds even when HDD is doing nothing at...

Hmm, true or false? Looks like a swiss army knife of mobile apps. I can see more then one current app being killed because of this potential version. https://www.appinn.com/synology-drive-x-alpha/
