DSM 7.0 for DS416j

[Alex79]

I was curious, if such older Synology as DS416j with just 512MB of memory would work well with DSM 7.0

After upgrade to DSM 7.0-41890 Im quite surprised and satisfied. Im using only few packages such as Synology Photos, File station, Hyper backup,....

Overall DSM is fast and smooth. Have not found any issue yet.

Memory consumption around 55%

So if anybody suspicious to upgrade, for me the upgrade works well.

I saw a reduction in workload between 6.2.3 and 6.2.4 (all versions)... on 215J (also 512M)... At their site they indicate 1Gb is 'preferred'... for V7
Based on what I saw at V6.... I'm holding off on 7.

Synology doesn't recommend DSM 7 with less than 1Gb memory.
