If you tried to update to DSM 6.2.4 here is a link that may help ...

TS-453A is the first one I started with. I did try the TS-653B on another motherboard that has 6 sata ports. Testing continues ...

After using QTS 4.4.2 on an ASRock J3455-itx motherboard emulating aTS-453A NAS I have ran across a couple anomalies. Qboost and License Center need to be re-installed after a reboot. While in APP Center I can download and re-install apps but I can't get the "Settings Icon" to activate the dialog box so I can change APP Center settings.

I wanted to give this a try to checkout the QNAP HDMI programs. I also wanted to compare the QNAP programs with the Synology equivalent programs. I have a spare ASRock J3455-itx motherboard I used for the QNAP build. This motherboard has 4 SATA ports onboard. 2 x SATA3 6.0 gb/s connections are provided by the SOC and 2 SATA3 6Gb/s connections are provided by a ASMedia ASM1061 chip. 4 2.5” 1tb hard drives used. QNAP model emulated: TS-453A After a few tries I could only get the 2 SOC provided SATA Ports to work. After checking out jamkiki72’s

When you install DSM, a system partition is created on each of the hard drives you have in your system. This system partition on each hard drive is where DSM gets installed. Once you have your system up and running you could actually remove the boot-able thumb drive, as it is not needed for normal operation. If you did pull the thumb drive you would need to reinsert it to boot again. I would say your network card is compatible with the version of the boot loader you have on the thumb drive, but after DSM gets installed, DSM does not have the correct network driver for you netwo

Hello rickym, I have a couple motherboards I am testing which are running the DS918+ boot loader and DSM 6.2.1-23824 Update 2. When I set them up initially, I used the 1.03a boot loader and a graceful shutdown was normal When boot loader 1.04b became available, I thought I would switch to it. When I made the switch I discovered a graceful shutdown was not possible. So I just reverted back to the older boot loader. The older 1.03a boot loader only recognizes Intel Network Interface Cards. I am using a couple ASRock J3455-ITX motherboards and have the internal Realtek NIC

Hello, I would check the USB boot order in your bios. I have 3 USB External Drives for backup hooked up to my xpenoloby box plus the USB thumb drive which it boots from. In the bios I have the USB thumb drive as the first boot device. I hope this helps.

After upgrading to jun's lastest 918+ boot loader 1.04b, ASRock J3455-ITX motherboard does not perform a graceful shutdown. Can't perform a reboot from the DSM GUI as It hangs on shutdown.

After you install DSM 6.1.7 using 1.02b loader, you may want to change your Control Panel Update & Restore settings. The following setting will only show you "important and security updates only, while retaining the current version of DSM." As IG-88 stated, each major release of dsm requires a new bootloader. There is also a setting that will automatically install all DSM and Important updates; this should not be selected using xpenology boot loaders. I hope this info is helpful.

I have other motherboards running DS3615xs and DS3617xs without any problems. I have a couple ASRock J3455-ITX motherboards I am testing Jun's 1.03a2 loader. A failed update is positive feedback to Jun, indicating there could be a problem with the loader. Currently, it is only alpha. I was able to do a reinstall on the J3455-ITX which reverted the system back to the previous state before the update. The ASRock J3455-ITX's are only test systems. No harm done other then the time to do the reinstall. Thanks for your feedback.

I just tried the DS918p 6.2-23739 Update 1 on a baremetal ASRock J3455-ITX using Jun's 1.03a2 loader and after the automatic reboot, the update experienced a kernel panic.
