  1. In this tutorial we are going to place the bootloader alongside the DSM OS and the remaining storage Keep in mind that i use DSM 6.1 and not 6.2! What you need: Win32DiskImager Jun's loader v1.02b DS3615xs with MBR partition DSM 6.1 (15047) grub2 (i used grub2-for-windows) partition/hard disk manager (i used Paragon Hard Disk Manager 15) USB stick for the bootloader empty SSD First we are going to put the bootloader on a USB stick using Win32DiskImager Then we are going to install DSM normally After the installation of DSM and configuring your device name, username, etc goto the Storage Manager and create a RAID Group for only the SSD in Basic then click Apply and goto Volume and create one (doesn't matter what File system you used, but i use ext4) then click OK and shutdown the server Now we are going to do some fun things with the SSD drive where DSM and the storage are installed on put the SSD drive and the USB stick with the bootloader on it (we need some files later) out of the DiskStation machine and put them in your main PC Start up your partition/hard disk manager and look for the SSD that you installed DSM on it should look like this: Look at the last Unallocated partition, it should be 100MB big thats plenty for the loader so we are going to make a new partition (50MB is enough) and make sure you put it at the very end of the drive dont forget to put the drive as Active and assign a drive letter to it Now we are going to install grub2 on that 50MB partition i used this website to make one (because i use Windows) After you have install grub2 on that partition that we need to copy all the files from the 2nd partition of the usb drive and place them in the root directory of the 50MB partition don't forget to place the grub.cfg (from the 1st partition) in the /grub folder of 50MB partition Now unplug the SSD from your PC and place it in your DiskStation pc and boot it up (you dont need to edit anything just let it boot) you can use Synology Assistant to find your DiskStation pc and you should see a normal welcome page were you can login After you have logged in you should see an error message, that is because of the small FAT16 partition you will get that everytime you startup that machine Storage Manager should say that your system is healthy. Thats it, you can now use it normally without an USB bootloader also you can update to the latest 6.1 version if you want (make sure you don't install 6.2, haven't tested that one)

  2. Simple answer: if you try to use an external service (find.synology.com) with no internet access -> doesn’t work. DSM needs a DHCP in your network. If your router supports this feature you should check it‘s DHCP leases after the loader has started.

  3. Non tu ne pourras pas activer quickconnect , si tu n'as aucunes données a conserver sur ton NAS pourquoi ne pas simplement formater les HDD avec un live linux puis reprendre de zéro ?

  6. I'd suggest starting by having a look at this thread: You mentioned that you wanted to use VMM, sadly as the N54 has an AMD CPU that won't be possible as it's only supported on Intel CPU's. As for your data it should be ok, however you should always have a backup just in case things go awry.

  7. The issue is a matter of timing in the first place. Something in your system is causing the eSATA initialization to happen later than other systems, or perhaps there needs to be more time between unmounting and device deactivation. The moment where /etc/local/rc.d executes seems to work for most, but on your system it must be too soon. I'd try modifying the script to add pauses in the following locations and see if it helps: Add a line containing sleep 5 immediately before echo "remove" >/sys/class/block/$basename/uevent Add a line containing sleep 15 between start) and FixSynoboot
