Hi, I recently bought a DS213J which I'm using solely with an external USB device which has super/ military grade security. In a silent room the DS213J is very noisy, presumably due to it's disks. I'm not using disks for storage, although I understand they hold the OS. I have adjusted power...

I would like to use the USB Copy function of my DS220+ to copy over video footage from my GoPro onto my NAS. The video footage is stored on a MicroSD card. What is the best way to use the USB Copy function? Do I need to get some kind of adaptor so that the MicroSD card can connect to the USB...

I removed the second WD 4GB BTRFS data disk from my DS216+, put it in a HDD docking unit and connected it to the USB 3 connector on the same DS216+. The three partitions on the disk are not recognised, with File System type: <Not Supported>. Is this normal?

I just recently upgraded from DS1512+ to 1621+ and noticed it only has 3 USB ports vs 6 ports on 1512+. I have 3 USB drives and I also need to connect a UPS. Did anybody had to use a USB hub. Any recommendations? Looks like DS1621+ has USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports. TIA

I use an external 2TB external USB drive to provide monthly backups of various folders on my NAS (DS218+; DSM6.2). In USB Copy I have 8 tasks set up to do these backups. My 2TB is now too small and full, so I bought a 5TB drive; plugged it in only to find that the existing tasks do not see the...

I'm doing a Hyper backup to USB drive (dest: ext4, compressed, encrypted, no backup rotation, 8TB drive) for offsite, about 5 TB data. When I do the initial backup, it takes a long time (expected). When I do the second backup on that same job, it again takes a long time, and then runs out of...

Maybe a stupid question: can I work parallel while USB Copy is copying fils on an External SSD in Mirroring mode? What happen if I am working on a file that is being copied?

I used to have tasks set up to back up data to usb drives. Then the tasks failed. I deleted the old tasks and started a new task two weeks ago. First it took almost a week then failed with no detailed message. Last weekend I restarted it and it took three days already with only 40% of file...
