upgrade

Hi, old noob here. I finally decided that my DS212j is getting too far behind the DSM version(current 6), and want some of the newer features of 7. My DS212j does not support 7, so am moving to a DS220+. My question is... since I don't plan on using the old DS212j, can I just move the disks...

Hi all, since upgrading to 7.2 - and I mean within a couple of hours - I'm now getting these alerts on Synology Router Event Type: Malware Command and Control Activity Detected Signature: ET JA3 HASH - Possible AnchorMail CnC Traffic originating from the NAS drive. The destination IP address...

Upgrading from 1GbE to 10GbE – Should You Do It? Whether you are a completely new NAS buyer or someone that has owned their own private server for a number of years, the idea of upgrading your local network from the rather standard gigabit Ethernet up to 10-gigabit Ethernet has always floated...

Dear all, My music files were converted from MP4 -> m4a and they are working fine before I upgrade DSM to 6.2.4-25556 Update 7 (Audio Station also need to upgrade to 6.5.7-3383) Seems the problem is the stop of trancode of AAC-encoded content on server side. I tested and convert those m4a...

I finally started to update my DSM from 6.2 to what it is now 7.2 i think. I started this yesterday morning and so far it has been 14 hours and counting and i still can not access it via the usual IP address. I have DS3617xs, 6 HDs, RAID 5, and about 40 TB of data. So far the journey has been as...

720+ has 2 drive SHR. 720+ supports 2 drives. 7.1 does not allow mixed drive SHR So, both drives need to swapped at same time (per support), in order to go to SSD SHR. This removes DSM. MY PLAN: Hyper backup of all data & pgms on 720+ stored on other NAS. Power down, swap both drives to SSD...

Good morning folks, I currently own a ds214se, and I think it’s time to upgrade my nas, it seems slow and very unresponsive these days, and it seems a bit of a mine field out there! I don’t use plex as I never liked it! I mainly use it for downloading and backing up my data! I am just...

Having recently acquired a new DS920+ I decided to upgrade the ram. Because I could. No other reason, OK? Given the frankly shocking price of ram from Synology I opted for a 4 GB chip from Crucial at a fifth of the price! Very easy to fit considering my knackered hands. Fired it up as soon as I...

I'm running a DS923+ with 3x6TB WD Red Plus and 1x1TB SSD. The 6TB drives are configured as SHR so I guess I've got about 10TB of space. Problem is I'm running out of space. :) I'm looking for clever ideas here. I probably want to keep my two volumes (so I'm not that interested in removing the...

Current setup: DS920+ with 3x 8tb Seagate Ironwolf drives. Current used capacity 28% (4th 8tb drive being added this weekend, which should bring the use down to approx 20%, if my math is correct.) I'm looking ahead to possible expansion options. I've read that the DX option might impact...

I was using L2TP VPN server on my DS916+ which worked perfectly for years. Last weekend I upgraded to DSM7 (was using DSM6.xxx before) On an external location I do have a TP-LINK Archer C1200 connected as a VPN client to my Synology DS916+. Somehow it's not working anymore since the upgrade...

Seeking advise from the community, I am currently running RT2600 in AP mode, ethernet meshed to MR2200 still running on SRM 1.2.5 8227 latest update. I do not use the smart connect nor the 802.11r or MU-MIMO based on experience. I am waiting until SRM 1.3.1 has more maturity with all the issues...

I have a 2 bay DS-218 which I’m upgrading to DS-923+ Im running two 6TB WD Red plus which are almost full (78%) and would definitely need to get another drive when I upgrade. Question is, should I stick to 6TB or just upgrade to 12TB and then when either 6TB dies, move that up to 12TB as...

I have a main RT2600ac connected in mesh configuration via wire to two MR2200ac and via wireless to one MR2200ac. They're all running SRM 1.2.5-8227 Update 5 and I want to upgrade to latest 1.3.1. As far as I can see I have to download 1.3.1 pat file for RT2600ac from Synology website and do a...

I think I've narrowed down my choice to a DS220+. While I think it would be cool to have 4 bays, realistically it should be years before I need more space and I cannot justify $200 more vs the DS220+ just for e empty bays. So, my question is I heard that when the time comes I'll have to remove...
