Hi
Running DSM 7.2.2 on a DS218play
I want to automatically start Plex Server every time the NAS powers up
In Sceduled Tasks I can see I can start and stop Plex as a regular schedule at a certain time on a daily, weekly or monthly basis. But this is not what I want. I want to start plex...
I am using the DS918+ with DSM 7.1.1-42962 Update 7 and wanted to uninstall Plex. I just started using Plex but I get a message saying I'm Not authorized to use this server. So I wanted to uninstall/reinstall it and see if it helps. The issue is in the package center, Plex seems to be broken. No...
Just got a New DS1823xs+. 8x24TB RAID 6 Exos drives, and a Mirrored 2TB M.2 volume, 64GB RAM, 10GB Fiber interface. This is a Personal Network setup at home.
I installed the m.2 volume for apps. My intention was for apps that needed good performance. But I don't really have a feel for...
Hi All,
My DS214play is 10 years old now and was very slow for Plex and Surveillance Station which is its 2 main functions.
After a lot of reading I purchased the items below as research suggested the ram upgrade and installing PLEX on the SSD will make a lot of difference.
QUESTION - How do...
Day Two of ownership of the DS923+ and I have a lot more to configure, but the first thing I want to start thinking about is using it as a Plex Server.
Right now, I have an SHR (RAID 5-ish, I guess?) containing four, 12TB (Synology) drives, and another SHR (RAID 1) of two, 1.8TB M.2 SSDs...
Hello🙂
I'm getting totally confused about making Volumes, do I need to make two volumes or just one large one.
It's a 4 bay but I'm only going to be using two hard drives (14TB) to start with using SHR.
I'm using the NAS for Plex and Data backup from my computer.
If I should be making two...
I have a Synology DS220+ running a Plex server, and I can watch live TV through a PC browser. I'm now considering buying a smart TV to watch Plex live. My questions are: What type of TV supports Plex? Are there any specific protocols I need to consider? Can I use the TV remote to change...
Plex Media Server Vs Synology Video Station on a NAS
One of the most popular reasons that users choose to buy a network-attached storage (NAS) device is for use as a media server. The appeal is pretty clear. With most users now owning decades of media (either in digital form or ripped from...
Synology DS423+ vs DS923+ Plex NAS Comparison – Which Should You Buy?
Today I want to compare the hardware on offer inside the Synology DS923+ NAS (released in Dec 2022) and compare it with the newer and more lower powered, but hugely popular Synology DS423+ NAS (released inin Summer 2023)...
I just noticed my PMS v1.32.8.7639 is alerting there's an update: it's to 1.40.0.7998. The release notes start:
Over at Plex.tv there's a forum thread asking how's it going on Synology and so far a couple have posted with playback problems. I thought it might be useful to capture any similar...
I have a DS220+ with Plex installed, so I can watch Plex live TV on computers. I want to buy a TV that I can watch Plex live TV channels. I know I need to choose a TV that explicitly supports Plex in their OS. What else do I need to consider? How is the user experience watching Plex live TV on a...

A Guide to the Best Plex NAS Drives to Buy Right Now
In 2024, if you’re considering a Synology or QNAP NAS drive for setting up a Plex Media Server, it’s probably because you’re tired of subscribing to multiple online streaming services, OR you have a vast collection of physical discs at home...
this is more of a why question than an how to. I have plex on my tv via Roku. Both are hard wired via a switch which goes to my router modem. When I run plex on my tv to watch a movie, why does it use the WAN and not just the LAN. I found this out one day after my internet went down. I'm...
Hello,
I use the DS220+ with latest version of DSM. I mainly use it for Plex, Music and Photos. Since the latest update the Plex shortcut disappeared and I've been unable to drag Plex to the Synology home page to create a new shortcut. I'm clearly missing something. Is anyone able to help and...
I'm seeing multiple duplicates of Movies in PLEX... this is a new issue I've not encountered before. All had been fine.... The only changes I made several months ago was to add the SNAPSHOT feature to some folders... Movies being one of them, though I had not checked PLEX immediately afterward...
