fma965 Posted August 24, 2014 Share #1 Posted August 24, 2014 Hey guys you remember me from my previous tutorials well i'm back with a new 1 today, this one is for all compatible hardware and installs from scratch DSM 5.0 4493 and even updates it to 4493 - update 3. This guide is a ESXi and Non ESXi guide and contains instructions for both VMDK users and IMG users. Enjoy. http://cyanlabs.net/Thread-Install-Synology-DSM-5-0-4493-using-Nanoboot-ESXi-Non-ESXI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shteve Posted August 30, 2014 Share #5 Posted August 30, 2014 Only thing I'd add is that for ESXi you may need to enable hard drive write caching. My Microserver ran like a dog under ESXi until I enabled that in the BIOS (was fine as a bare metal install). *edit* And now I see that you've had this tweak on your site since 14th July. Why couldn't I see it before? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
