I'm trying to set up the backblaze-personal-wine docker as outlined in the NAS Compares article on the subject.  (I tried to post the link here but I'm told I can't post URLs.)
I'm able to pull and start the container, but the Backblaze client doesn't seem to install.  Looking at the log there are several instances of "wine: /wine is not owned by you".  I assume this is preventing the container from creating needed folder structures but I am not super familiar with Docker and I don't know how to resolve this.  Can anyone help?

Thanks in advance!

Hi ,

i love your videos and helped me so much but i need to ask about my first nas
because i am bit confused with a)model of nas for my needs and b)hdd's choice  


Can you please help me decide?

First of all i dont have data that if lost i will be destroyed BUT i dont
want to lose my data if possible so i am looking for a reasonable option for at least 4 bay NAS
so i can have one disk for parity for redundancy and be a bit future proof.
And maybe then a cloud backup option of some sensitive data like documents or some
photos i dont want to lose.


My NAS is to have it mainly for

1)photos to back up from my pc's and mobile (iphone)
2)Documents from work on my laptop
3)Big storage for movies and series so I can play them from my laptop or my
home pc localy through NAS (no plex just use the nas as a hard drive to play movies/series) on a pc.
4)Full Backup of my 2 pc's and my laptop (right now i use acronis twice a month if i
dont forget it ).

The amount of data I currently have is around 4.5 TB so i am thinking to start
with 2x 12TB WD Red Plus (lower noise from pro) since Gold are not supported officialy
from synology on 923+ or other models i checked.

Disks is another issue i would love to help me if possible since i trust WD  (WDDA is an issue but since i can
disable it its fine for me..) for years because I have disks 9 years old working fine and only once i lost a wd disk
years ago.
I was thinking for Gold but the compatibility issues with synology bothers me
since you get a Warning/Danger message all the time if disks are not supported am i right?

So if gold is not an option then red plus is the only way to go since pro is more noisy .
Sorry to say but i dont trust seagate and noisewise are more db's for my living room.

So any advice here would be helpful before i go out and buy disks!!!


So for the Nas unit i am considering Synology DS923+ even with an amd cpu, but 4gb of ram? seriously,
but since RAM KINGSTON KSM26SES8/8HD costs 29 euros will it be ok for the system or i will always have
a warning/danger message for the memory.

Other option is Synology DS1522+ since 8gb are ok and +1 bay for about 150euros
(the price i have for DS923+ from official reseller here is 708 euros for DS923+ and 858 euros for DS1522+)
is a better deal since RAM KINGSTON KSM26SES8/8HD costs here 29 euros for 923+? 
Another issue was the nvme cache and not a pool option for 1522 , after i found your video about it
if i understand correctly if i dont use Synology nvme its only for cache even in DS923+ .
So since i never gonna buy Synology nvme with that price, cache is the way for both ds923 & ds1522+.

My question here is if i use Samsung or Intel or any other nvme vendor will my SYnology work ok or i will
always have a Question mark or Danger/Warning message for the nvme?

And finally the big question because the hardware on Synology is always outdated and no 2.5gbe is it a
good choise or i should go with something else ?
The only issue with Qnap is security since they have better hardware but go online is a risk.
And if i go for synology should i get DS923+ with kingston memory upgrade to 8gb for 29 euros or go for
DS1522+ already with 8gb and +1 bay for 130 euros more is it worth it?.
DIY and unraid was a solution but i dont want another pc working all the time since electricity bill is a big issue for me.


Thank you for any advice and sorry for all those questions but since i am buying first time and you
are the only one i found on youtube with so nice video's explaining almost everything you are the
only one that i will follow your advice .

Cheers!

I have a DS1618+ with DSM version 6.2.4-255556, currently running the 4GB it came with. I purchase Crucial 32GB Kit (CT2K16G48FD824A) and installed it. When i powered it on the power light flashed for approximately 3 -4 minutes maybe a bit longer, but the NAS never came online. so i shut it off and removed the 32GB kit, threw the 4GB stick back in and restarted. Within 2 minutes it was online. Did it not like the 32GB kit or did i just not wait long enough for the NAS to complete an internal test?

900 char max here, so 2 the pt.Send ur XMR/BTC addy. I will use ur Azon links. Looking at 220J/220+/420J.Currently tower server with LUKS on linux as raid 6 4+4+4+4TB. Need to replace or upgrade this. DSM7+ supports LUKS? or full vol encryption? Do i type the LUKS PWD on boot, or login to DS on boot and it uses a software key? can i use hardware (usb) LUKS key? {how to avoid the physical theft of whole unit & keep data integrity} The single 220J+USB3 > realtek 5G adapter can that be LAG for 5 usrs+media ctr at or do you recomm the 220+ with dual rj45 for this? Would love the 4 bay ( then 6+6+6+spare ) but that means all new setup of drives+device. Or would you recomm some other setup? Obviously the $$$ cheaper the better. I see you are using WD red HDD, thats good enough? (non-surveilance work, just files/media center). Also looked at SSD 4T+4T but the bottleneck is still the rj45. tnx

I have a friend that has a DS120j, and while it supports Plex, it's a pretty slow to respond device. Is there a model you can suggest that supports upgrading to with a disk swap method? If not, can you suggest a base two drive model that is powerful enough to run Plex and transcode if necessary?

Of course, my friend would prefer the first method to save on money, but are open to suggestions for a budget friendly, Plex capable, device with a good five year (if possible) future proofing

This is an amazing offer!

I'm technically savvy, so I'm fine with the CLI or tinkering.

Use case:
+ Photo / Video storage (no fancy AI, no sharing, no editing, no remote access)
+ Normal document storage, occasional editing in-place

Requirements:
+ Easy to set up
+ Low maintenance
+ Easy to swap out drives if needed
+ iOS apps and preferably can use the Files app
+ Must be accessible and mount-able from Macs and Linux easily, preferably without any extra drivers

Nice to have in terms of priority:
+ De-duplication
+ Snapshot / file versioning
+ Support for 3rd party storage providers using an S3 API, rclone, or rsync
+ Encryption
+ Virtualization
+ Accessible to Plex-type players (does not need to host Plex app)

Storage:
+ 4TB but grows slowly. ~500GB/year.

The Nice to have section is really nice to have, it's perfectly fine if the available hardware don't support any of that.

We have a synology 215j, considering upgrade to 423+ or similar Qnap. Key purpose is to replace my use of Dropbox which I use to host my work. I work between 2 computers PC, iPhone and iPad. My broadband is 500m up/down on a gigabit Lan network
I like the Synology drive and I did a test on it with introducing a single project on my PC that is synchronised with Synology drive which seemed fine at first. Later I dragged a bunch of folders (a lot), and it seems that Synology drive consistently do not sync the contents 3 levels in.
The question is if this is because I am using a 215j and upgrading to 423+ would solve the problem? Or would the Qnap equivalent work better for my needs?
I would like to have the client software that enables synchronisation, keep all of the files on the NAS, and then the ability to keep some of it offline on the client machine when desired (laptop, PC, iPhone iPad), similar to how it works on Dropbox.

Greeting,
I plan to buy TS-1263XU-4G (End Of Life) since I found it new with very low price (around 550USD) and I have some questions, is there any way to get video output since I want to try different OS in case the software support stopped.
there it seems some unused pin headers in the motherboard and not explain in the manual

sorry this is the only I could find.

thanks

Hi Mate,
I commented on I think your last stream on advice to this

Mate Looking at streaming to 4 bedrooms and 2 Lounge rooms, most Likely they will not all be use at ounce, possibly up to 3 to 4 room at a time.

But what I would like to set up is PLEX as we use it now, running of my PC.

Also I would like to use the NAS as a Cloud service for the Family for backing up Mobile phones.

I have a little knowledge in IT but i would not say im Very Experienced but I do have a Large amount of time to Research and Learn new Programs and techniques

I want to get this SETUP done asap so if you could recommend me the Best NAS setup for what I need that would be greatly appreciated.

I have watched so many of your YouTube videos and now my HEAD is SCRAMBLED haha on which way to go lol

Thank you

RAY

I just built a nas with synology 1823xs+ and 4x WD RED Pro 22tb. Each has a throughput of around 265MB/s. When configured in raid 0,5 and 6 throughput is expected. In RAID 10 throughput is ~ 500MB/s (not good) Read, 530MB/s Write (g00d). Raid 10 should give 4x read , 2x write performance, but the write is barely hitting 2x. Any thoughts?
