I am using micro SD card to USB reader Actually some buffalo USB drive if your tear it down, it is a USB reader + Micro SD card Buffalo atom NAS also come with this kind of boot device

the update pack is cumulative (included the old updates), no need to sed 4 times

the DSM will be installed on all harddisk in particular partitions in RAID 1 mode cat /proc/mdstat Personalities : [linear] [raid0] [raid1] [raid10] [raid6] [raid5] [raid4] md3 : active raid1 sdc3[0] sdd3[1] 2925544256 blocks super 1.2 [2/2] [uU] md2 : active raid1 sda3[0] sdb3[1] 2925544256 blocks super 1.2 [2/2] [uU] md1 : active raid1 sda2[0] sdb2[1] sdc2[2] sdd2[3] 2097088 blocks [12/4] [uUUU________] md0 : active raid1 sda1[0] sdb1[1] sdc1[2] sdd1[3] 2490176 blocks [12/4] [uUUU________]

quickconnect is for real synology hardware

hackers do not necessary need to try your admin password, once the hackers identified your device is synology NAS, and have some security vulnerabilities that haven't been fixed, it is possible hackers can remote access your nas as root user - disable port forwards 5000, 50001 ... ports - stop using synology free DDNS, synology domain is unsafe

For real synology product, I would suggest that don't use their free DDNS services, It just let the hacker know that you are using synology DSM Besides that the hackers may mass scanning the ip Address ports 5000, 5001 to test it is synology product, using free synology domain name (such as synology.me) is very dangerous and vulnerable to attack I think it is very stupid to use such manufacturer specific DDNS services, it just draw the hackers attention

Enable/disable disks hibernation Control Panel :: Hardware and Power :: HDD hibernation check system log message: "System : Internal disks woke up from hibernation" you may also can hear the hdd head parking sound in terms of power usage, you can spot the power consumption will be dropped, my set-up (atom 2550, 3TB HDD x4) idle power ~45W drop to ~26W (hibernation activated)

1. DS3612xs do not have SD Card Reader 2. to facilitate SD copy, you need a Copy Button, non-real synology hardware do not has such thing, even you cannot use the power button to shutdown the NAS, because the kernel do not have the interface can read its status does it make sense to you

Using/abusing Synology's resources like that isn't very cool though is it? that's true

I am using a device from "Brennstuhl" which is very good and still show up very small values and I trust it. This is why I am asking. Is it possible that these messages come up even if nothing happens? my tested NAS configuration gnoboot 10.5 + DSM 5.0-4458 Atom D2550 + 2GB RAM + Toshiba 3TB x4 idle power consumption : 53W set the disk hibernation time to 10 minutes disk hibernation mode power consumption : ~23W

does anyone use the 10.5, disk hibernation works or not ? thanks

it is the same, just up to you, ext2 or vfat format

try play with /etc.defaults/synoinfo.conf internalportcfg= esataportcfg= internalportcfg + esataportcfg should = 0xfffff you may try one by one which bit correponding to that particular port you want to set it as esata port Thanks, I'll have to play around to try to understand how it works on my test system (soon as I put back together). The values on my real system are as follows: usbportcfg ="0xf00000" esataportcfg ="0xff000" internalportcfg ="0xfff" does each bit equal a port? so in order to change 5th port I make values to this? usbportcfg ="0xf00000" esataportcfg ="0xff010" internalportcfg ="0xfef" edit: Yay, It worked! At first it wasn't working (doing all tests with virtual disks), then I realized my 5th disk wasn't partitioned or formatted. After that it showed up in external devices convert the hexadecimal format to binary format, maybe it is more easy to understand 0xfffff (in hex) = 1111 1111 1111 1111 1111 1111 .... 1111 (in binary) each bit = one port (1=enable, 0=disable)

try play with /etc.defaults/synoinfo.conf internalportcfg= esataportcfg= internalportcfg + esataportcfg should = 0xfffff you may try one by one which bit correponding to that particular port you want to set it as esata port
