I need some professional advice which I would rather pay for.

Our back story is…

Having become frustrated with the data mess of 3 PCs, 3 laptops, and numerous devices I purchased a Synology DS420+ having watched many of your (and other) videos. We have a great Ubiquity home network to keep us connected wired and wirelessly, but with us now mostly home working and homeschooling and using more in-house media for entertainment we needed a central data solution.

Being dyslexic I tend to look to audio/visual instruction. With so much information and opinions on the likes of youtube I have become completely overwhelmed with snippets of advice over the past 4 days of what I want to achieve, but still no definitive answer to how to do it.

Do you offer a paid advice service or a remote set-up option? And what is your availability as I keen to get this up and running asap.


We do not offer individual support service. It would be too expensive for people, therefore, we try to prepare guides and videos.If you have set u your NAS already and you can access it then there is not much to do.You will want a few things activated. Synology Drive app and mapped Network drive.Here is how to install Drive: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ntq_0JFnJw4&ab_channel=SPANdotCOMHow to map it as a network drive: https://youtu.be/vzoK7_asxy0?t=1310If you want to access it over the internet: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CR-P8PNSWEU&ab_channel=NASComparesI hope this helps.
