Currently have a Synology DS220+ w/two 4 gig drives. Considering getting a second Synology to replace the 220+, and use the 220+ as an off-site backup. There are a million blogs, influencers and videos on the topic and more interested in input from the forum, the Synology daily users. First, I...

I am having an issue whereby I cannot sync the root of my home folder for my user on the NAS to a designated folder on my Ubuntu desktop using the Synology Drive client. It has worked previously, indeed team folders can be synced and are still working. Looking on my android phone on synology...

As we begin the new year, let’s take some time to reflect on 2025 and take a look at the year ahead. In 2025, businesses faced a wide range of challenges related to data protection, especially IT teams responsible for safeguarding corporate data. As market trends leaned towards strategies such...

What do you think? Personally I think that Synology interest in homeconsumers are all-time low right now but I'd really would like to get surprised this year. I don't have any high hopes for some killer hardware (wrong manufacturer for killer hardware to be honest... :)) but atleast a nice DSM...

So I asked Support a more in depth question about a setting in SRM. They Responded, but I suspect it was AI… rather than human generated. In the response, there was information as to where the setting Was, that I was asking about, and it pointed to a completely non-existent folder in Control...

First we waited due to reported issues with Other apps we use. Then we waited for .2 when .1 had reported issues, and updates on other apps. Then we waited because we were going out of town. 26.2 has been out for a while. Other apps say they are now fine with 26.2. How does 26.2 work with DS...

Well, it's come to this, I have created an account here because I can't find a solution to what I'm sure is the most basic of NAS functions. I've seemingly run out of space on my NAS and for the life of me, cannot recover any space by removing files. I run my NAS primarily as a media center...

Hello, I'm a long time Synology Router user, 1 RT2600ax and 2 MR2200ac routers in a mesh. With very little focus by Synology on their routers, I'm looking to the greater community for information and guidance on the routers going forward.

Hello team, Moving out for a time from Immich because sync between serveur and iOS app is not ready I’m wondering how synology storage works. I can read that iOS app backed up photos by default in MobileBackup. I will need to add other photo and will store it as synology does...

The Best PLEX, Emby and/or Jellyfin NAS Devices Released in 2025 Network media servers in 2025 range from tiny single drive boxes to fairly serious multi bay systems that can sit at the center of a home network. This article looks specifically at NAS hardware released in 2025 that can sensibly...

We are experiencing a 20-second delay on access to an hdd storage pool after periods of inactivity. Our primary NAS recently moved from a DS1825+ to a DS1823xs+ — to take advantage of the additional CPU speed for a PHP application running under Web Station. The system has 8 Synology HAT3320-8T...

A while ago I discovered PhotoPrism and started with it on an older Synology DS916+. While it worked, the performance wasn’t quite what I hoped for, especially with AI and larger libraries. After some searching on the local second-hand market (Willhaben), I found a great deal on a DS1621+ with...

Though it wasn’t in effect in August, 2025 Oceania cruises has now locked down Internet such that DS FINDER, DS ROUTER, DS CAM and other DS are now blocked. “Need (daily charge) Streaming package update” “I’m not Streaming!” “Would like chance to prove this is no different bandwidth use than a...

Josh Lin, Director of Video Surveillance solutions at Synology, explains how Surveillance Station 9.2.5 marks a major milestone, with a significant jump from 8,900 to more than 17,000 supported cameras. Video surveillance systems rarely start from a blank page. Today, most organizations already...

Hi All, Just hoping for some assistance with my NAS external access. Until now, I have used reverse proxy rules for access to DSM, File Station, Synology Drive, Photos and WEBDav apps. These apps were all configured as sub-domains. I decided to give the VPN Server a try (open VPN) and I have...

Just introducing myself - I've ran Synology in the corporate space for 7 years and now looking into the personal space... not liking what I'm seeing lately, tbh.

Hello everyone, Has anyone shopped online at the Synology Store lately? All of their HDDs are out of stock and have been out of stock for over a month. I can understand that due to high demand they might be out of stock of maybe two or three different drives, but not all of them at once. This...

This NAS has been up and running without problems for over a year. It has four 14TB Iron Wolf Drives in the proprietary Synology RAID BTFRS or whatever it is called. Saturday night, the 13th of December it froze suddenly. Non-responsive. No alarm lights or sounds. Could not shut it down. Had...

Hi all, I'm Morce and have been using Synology (DS220 and DS223j) for years. Recently started doing more coding and finally figured out how to build a package. So now I can share with the world the tooling I use to work with my DSMs. I hope you will enjoy it. Send me a message if you have a...

My LG Oled55C9pla2 TV worked very well with my DS223j NAS for 2 years But for 3 days, it still sees the hierarchy of my files, but they are empty of files. While my Mac mini, my iPads, and my iPhone see them perfectly. I rebooted the box, the NAS, and the TV, but nothing happens. What is the...
