Synology

This is a place for all topics regarding Synology hard- and software - especially (but not limited to) their NAS devices.

Just one thing: Let’s please be pleasant to each other and respect that people have different experience levels. Some are pros, some are noobs, yet everybody may have good ideas or interesting questions to ask and comments to make, and all of these shall be heard and appreciated. ❤️


And since we know from TV that all IT nerds 🤓 are h4xx0rs and wear hoodies all the time (if not even ski masks) in front of their computers, I chose an appropriate banner image (image credit).

Now I only have to figure out the best backup strategy and upload all photos for sharing with the lady.

I don't use synology devices but I'd recommend a little breathing room.

This is fine.

Seriously: front and back are open and inside there is room between the hard disk and the case. The disks are around 25 degrees C.

Is the logo on the side perforated for airflow in this model?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago

No. It is a 720+ with solid sides.

Welcome! Synology is a very good company for NAS devices.

I regret buying western digital.

I got one 4TB Western Digital with it and bought another 6TB. What did you regret?

I bought the WD MyCloud and I wish I just bought a real NAS, it's flaky and I have to reboot it each time I do a backup.

Storage and backup ;)
