Which DSM version shall I use? This is an oft-repeated question, complicated by the fact that different loaders support different DSM versions AND hardware platforms. In simple terms, DS3615/DS3617 has the widest support for hardware and packages, and DS916/DS918 has support for newer, low-cost CPU's, transcoding and NVMe cache (DS918 only). But the real questions are, what hardware do you have? What hardware do you want to buy in order to support what you want to do? And how does a DSM loader and platform support this? In order to answer, it's useful to understand what hardware is natively supported by DSM. Each DSM version is different as Synology does not need to support many types of hardware, as they build up a specific DSM for each hardware platform they sell. Fortunately, the base Linux kernel has much broader support for hardware than they intend. Most of us guessed at the hardware requirements and made (hopefully) intelligent selections on DSM versus hardware. Some build systems and then are distressed when the hardware isn't fully supported by the DSM platform they choose. Unfortunately, Synology hardware knowledge is often imperfect, as the main boards are custom designed. Refer to the example below for DS3615 (I hope it will be completed more precisely in the future). DS3615xs Reference Hardware: CPU: Intel Core i3-4130 (Haswell) Chipset: Intel C20x? 4x1Gbe Ethernet: ??? Secondary SATA: ??? 10Gbe OEM: E10G18 (Aquantia AQC107) E10G17 (Mellanox Connect X-2/3/4) E10G15 (Tehuti) With even this information, we can make some good guesses on what hardware might be supported. We certainly can act on the 10Gbe cards since those are well known. Wouldn't it be great if we knew ALL the different drivers that are natively supported? Unfortunately this is a fairly difficult process if you are not a Linux guru (and a bit laborious even if you are). There are "user-reported" hardware compatibility threads out there, but many don't understand that those reports are both DSM version and platform specific. Furthermore, with the way hardware manufacturers reissue hardware with the same name but new PCI device number (such as the Intel PHYs on desktop motherboards), often not enough information is reported to confirm whether a specific piece of hardware is suitable for use. If you aren't sure if your hardware is supported, this post and the complementary DS918 driver guide aim to help you. Download the appropriate Excel spreadsheet to see key driver support in the DS3615 6.1.7 or 6.2.1 Synology custom kernel, and via loadable modules supplied with DSM. Hopefully it will help you select the best DSM platform for your purposes, and possibly inform your hardware purchases. Common drivers missing from this platform, or newer driver versions that support the latest silicon may be available by installing additional compiled modules. 2021-Sep update: Now that folks are testing RedPill loader, they are finding that drivers working in 6.2.3 and earlier are missing in 6.2.4 or 7.0. This is because many of the drivers are part of the Jun loader and not truly native to DSM. Yes, the title of this post says NATIVE but for the purposes of the analysis, Jun's injected drivers are considered along with the actual embedded native drivers.

Yes that card works great with 1.02b and DS3615 on all DSM 6.1.x

I don’t know if it works ootb with 1.02b but you won’t be able to use the 1.02b with DSM 6.2 (or I missed something). Usually Mellanox cards of this series are supported by Synology.

If you try it on proxmox and still get Hdd errors, than my guess would be some hardware malfunction.

I'm just curious did you try to run it on Proxmox? I'm using it for few years with xpenology, and never had disk problems.

- Outcome of the installation/update: SUCCESSFUL - DSM version prior update: DSM 6.2-23739 - Loader version and model: JUN'S LOADER v1.03b - DS3615xs - Using custom extra.lzma: NO - Installation type: HP Proliant MicroServer Gen8 with E3-1265L V2 2.50GHz - Additional comments: Migrated from DS3617xs, internal nics do not work but Mellanox ConnectX-3 10GBe (MCX311A-XCAT) works, no need to disable internal nic in bios, you need them during installation, Shutdown and restart do not work

- Outcome of the installation/update: SUCCESSFUL - DSM version prior update: DSM 6.2.1-23824 update 6 - Loader version and model: JUN'S LOADER v1.03b - DS3615xs - Using custom extra.lzma: NO - Installation type: BAREMETAL - HP MicroServer Gen8 - Additional comments: HP NC360T Network card, replication snapshot deactivated and removed and replaced by Replication Service...

Поставте пакет "Power button". Встроенную сетевую отключить в BIOS. C1 state выключить. Все работает включая сон и выключение.

Moin, Dein aktueller loader wird der 1.02b sein. zum Update auf 6.2.1 benötigst du den loader 1.03b. Seit 6.2.1 laufen nur noch Intel Netzwerkkarten. Ich habe eine von hp mit Intel Chip verbaut und die interne netzwerkkarte deaktiviert. Das Update kannst du nicht ohne Probleme machen. Erst den neuen loader Anpassen (VID,PID, Mac, Seriennummer) dann das Image auf einen neuen Stick schreiben und Booten. Anschließend müsstest du mit dem Synology Assistent migrieren können. ich hoffe ich konnte dir erstmal einige Fragen beantworten.
