I set up my nas yesterday, it seemed to be ok but then bad stuff started happening.
not sure if it's faulty or what but I'm having some problems. I wanted to use it as a home seedbox mostly.
1. most annoying problem, there is a knocking sound every 3-5 seconds even when HDD is doing nothing at all. even with a clean install and no packages, occaionally the disk light will flicker, the HDD is new 16tb seagate exos. I'll have to move it to another room I suppose if this doesn't stop, if it's head parking or something which some people on reddit say is normal, too annoying, I did a quick smart it says it's healthy.
2. it won't hibernate anymore ever, I set it to 10 minutes, I remember yesterday the green lights were off so it was hibernating periodically, now it's not ever, even with my laptop off and I just turn it on by itself, still the knocking every 3-5 seconds and occasional activity flicker and green lights don't go off.
3. I can't open any ports and upload properly on transmission, which was the main point of getting this nas, although this might be my lack of knowledge but it's very confusing
Should I try through my router interface (which doesn't allow ipv6 as per my isp, but I tried disabling it in dsm and it didn't help), or through the router setup on the dsm (which recognizes my isp router)
should I set a static ip within my dhcp range? I have quick connect and it was assigned a dhcp ip. should I do ddsm?
Should I use docker transmission or the third party community one (the one I tried yesterday unsuccesfully). what's the difference.
When I turned on dmz just to see if it was possible, download station was seeding well uploading fast using but transmission was still barely working on same torrents, terrible speeds, I don't really want dmz on or download station as my main torrent client.
as far as additional information, I upgraded the ram to 20gb crucial which shows up as 20gb in info, and it has 2 500gig ssds cache, DSM 6.2.4-25556.
any help on any issue greatly appreciated.
