Update from WD EX2100 |

We installed a WD EX several years ago and it failed while in warranty. WD replaced it with a EX/DL 2100 series. It has been running for about 6 (or more) years with one major OS update. We don’t use MS AD but have many local users. Security to folders is troublesome. It continues to log CIFS unknown user errors. Anyway, with the age, I would like to update to newer technology and use the WD as a backup. We have many users that edit their files remotely as well as group folders and files.
Thank you,
Dale Herbranson

Hello there,
I was wondering if there would be any newer model releases for DS 1522+. I was thinking of getting one of these for my business as a backup server. Is waiting for newer 2024 models of similar specifications worth it? Thanks

Hello! Your videos on youtube are by far the most thorough! I'm hoping you can help me!
I'm a single user of three different macs. I work in film and I render separate 3d blender files on each mac all day long. The catch, all of those blender models should be pulling from the same linked data in one central storage. I'm tired of having to physically connect hard drives and lose precious texture links to my 3d files! This is where I THINK a NAS comes in.
Since my computers will all be in the same room, I thought thunderbolt would be best, but I can't seem to find the right solution. I tested the Iodyne Pro Data and found that while speeds were great, the constant mounting and un-mounting of drives was a pain. I'm close to pulling the trigger on a QNAP with SSD's but am weary of the thunderbolt speed. More or less, I was hoping to simply access all of my storage, simultaneously, quickly, across all machines. Does this exist??!! I know you guys will know!

Hot swapping drives |

I have a TR-004 attached to my 464. I started out with an 8 and 2 18TB drives on Raid 5. I bought another 18 to replace the 8 to get more TB for now. When I pulled the 8 out and put the 18 in, after the rebuilding, I still had the same amount of storage. I followed the directions, what little there were. I looked around, contacted QNAP, no response. I'm at wits end trying to figure this out. Any suggestions?

Drives Disappear on Synology DS1821+ |

I am using a powered USB hub to manage four backup drives attached to my Synology DS1821+ NAS. After updating to the latest DSM version, USBshare2 disappeared from both the control panel and the network. When I unplugged the drive however, I got a notification from the NAS that the drive had been improperly removed. I rebooted both the computer and the NAS to no avail. I then ejected all of the remaining drives, removed the hub. Rebooted the NAS again and added each component back one by one. This made things worse. Now 2 of the four drives don't show up. Plugging the drives into a computer has verified that they are operational and good. Any help?
(Apanage USB3.0 Super Speed 8 port powered hub) Everything was working until I updated the DSM (7.2-64570)

Hallo. I cant effort Synology SSDs but would like to have in the DS1522+ 4x4TB Raid5 SSDs. I did see WD Red SA500 on your website. That is less expensive and I could get 5x2TB Raid5. Do you have any experince with these and Raid5. What for Problems could I get because the SSD is not on the compaibilitylist from Synology. Do I have to expect dataloss or that synology blocks the using of them or anything like that? In the past you have made also youtube tutorials about not supportet RAM, do have also any about not supportet SSDs? What can you recommend to me? Some are using the Samsung 870 Evo that would be less expansive then the WD but is not like the WD for 24/7 use. Can you give me some advice? Looking forward hearing from you, with kind regards Nicholas Norman

Using my PC for jellyfin atm. Trying to set up a NAS for streaming at home and away from home. Currently have mesh wifi routers around the wired house. (Modem to mesh base to switch to mesh 1&2 via CAT6) . Will like to have the NAS next to my pc (connected to Internet via cable to mesh 1) will this be an issue? My main usage will be streaming 4k movies and some streaming 720p on phone out of home. Will like something that can handle wife streaming 4k at home and me streaming 720-1080p out of home at the same time.

Upgrading Synology NAS volume storage |

I have a Synology DS1621xs NAS with 6 x 12TB drives as a RAID 5 volume and have just reached 80% capacity so am looking to expand the storage without removing all drives at once and having to reinstall everything.
If I were to buy 6 x 18TB Ironwolf drives then would replacing one drive at a time and letting the system rebuild each time be the ‘easiest’ way to do this? I realise I’d be vulnerable to a drive failure and losing all my data during the rebuild. Is there a better way? I’m hesitant to remove all the drives and swap them for higher capacity drives all in one go as last time I did this it mucked up Plex.
Thanks in advance for your advice!
