I'll add ds918+ loader needs haswell or greater WITH integrated graphics. also, would the loader need to be modified to get these 5GB USB adapters to work?

I haven't been able to get this working on xpenology ds918+

DSM 6.2 Loader (with MBR partition Table)
Black6spdZ replied to Big_11's topic in Member Tweaked Loaders
THANKS! This is absolutely what I needed. The QNAP TS-x69 Pro board has the option to disable UEFI boot and boot just legacy but for some reason the normal bootloader from the Jun's would not boot in legacy mode on this device. UEFI would boot but then no ethernet. I know legacy on MBR worked ok too as I booted FreeDOS usb stick. Thanks to your modded MBR loader its working great! Damn QNAP OS is limited to 3GB or it locks up and also prevents SSD cach on this older model. XPeneology and DSM breaks both those beariers and give this old NAS new life 8GB RAM and a pair of 500GB SSDs for cache. -
I realize this has nothing to do with xpenology but why would the cache algorithm attempt to cache everything from a scrub routine.. that's generally A LOT of data!
-
I recently noticed IF you are using an SSD cache "R/W", sequential I/O allowed that when you perform a scrub of your volume it writes ALL of the data read during the scrub to the SSDs! This can't be right? using 918+ loader and 6.2.2.

- Outcome of the install: SUCCESSFUL - DSM version prior to update: DSM 6.2.2-24922 "DS3615xs v1.03b" - Loader version and model: Jun v1.04b - DS918+ - Using custom extra.lzma: NO - Installation type: BAREMETAL - E3-1265L v3 / 16GB / LSI 2308-8i IT - Additional comments: Prior attempt to run DS918+ failed because old e3-1220v3 had no internal iGPU. Upgraded to 1265L v3 and migrated without problems

- Outcome of the install: FAILED - DSM version prior to update: DSM 6.2.1-23824 U6 - Loader version and model: Jun v1.04b - DS918+ - Using custom extra.lzma: NO - Installation type: BAREMETAL - e3-1220v3 / 16GB / LSI 9220-8i IT - Additional comments: Error 13 when attempting to install to test HDD "multiple USB drives used with correct VID/PID, multiple test drives, two S/N" - Outcome of the update: FAILED - DSM version prior to update: DSM 6.2.1-23824 U6 - Loader version and model: Jun Loader v1.03b - DS3617xs - Using custom extra.lzma: NO - Installation type: BAREMETAL - e3-1220v3 / 16GB / LSI 9220-8i IT - Additional comments: Upgraded to 6.2.2 but no ping after reboot - Outcome of the update: SUCCESSFUL - DSM version prior to update: DSM 6.2.2-224922 - Loader version and model: Jun Loader v1.03b - DS3615xs - Using custom extra.lzma: NO - Installation type: BAREMETAL - e3-1220v3 / 16GB / LSI 9220-8i IT - Additional comments: After changing to DS3615xs loader, install detected the DS3617xs installation and migrated successfully

Tried a couple different HDDs as well
-
Im 100% positive the 0x was in front and the vid/pid were correct on several usb sticks.. Notepad++ used as well
-
Tried two separate real SN/MACs on my 1220v3, 3 different USBs with correct vid/pid without success, error 13. Not sure about the minimum haswell recommendation around here but it didn't work on mine
-
Thanks flyride.. I guess going forward since the ds3615xs is already EOL and I'm sure the ds3617xs is not far behind, Loader 1.03b and DSM 6.2.x may be the last for these models anyway. I was just hoping to possibly see newer DSM with say support for SMB 3 multichannel and btrfs ZSTD compression options or even offline deduplication with something like bees or dduper < things that benefit a true NAS and not home users wanting a simple 2-drive plex server
-
what's the cutoff then?
-
native on-board SATA?
-
6.2 isn't very old at all, I wouldn't worry much.. I'm sure it's being hashed out as we type this.
-
I see there are successful 6.2.1 updates in the updates reporting thread but unfortunately not many post their hardware configuration and its not required to fill that info out so it doesn't help the community much. Is there a list of what the "officially supported" kernel hardware is? So far it looks like Intel chipset NICs "all?"
-
has anyone here tested or run XPE on a QNAP "atom powered" NAS
-
Yes we are. This is a topic for Jun's loader, let it be for 6.0.2 or 6.1 - your question however is totally off topic and should be in a separate thread. Don't try to play smart. I didn't specifically mention XPEnology DSM in my question, but since I posted it here in this thread I'mm sure most would assume that is what i was talking about seeing how there is a vmdx for Jun's loader.. tell me how it wasn't relevant to the discussion? This is honestly the first place I've seen mentioned about running a NAS inside a VM.
-
Why not open a new thread? This is a forum and not a chatboard. Once again the question: are there any Mods around here? Are we really going there with the semantics? The terms message board and forum are pretty much used interchangeably ever since the dawn of internet. Since we are talking about mainly DSM 6.1 in the thread labeled 6.0.2, a new thread should have been started weeks ago.
-
There are some brave souls here willing to run a NAS as a VM.. Do the benefits really out weigh the risks?
-
besides bragging rights that 3617 > 3615, from everything I've read 3615 doesn't limit usable hardware in any way "quad core cpu, more mem etc" most likely the available ad-on Synology packages may differ from the detected hardware version. Someone correct me if I am wrong here.
-
so non-intel CPU / NIC = hit-or-miss bare-metal 6.1 NAS it appears. performance wise I'm not sure who would deviate from this anyway
-
So you have 2x HDD and 2x SSD correct? Why not use all 4 onboard SATA ports?
-
BTRFS + Compression "LZO" is practically a win-win except for a small number of cases. Take a quick look at this test from years ago http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=a ... 2638&num=2
-
Does this mean someone such as myself only using the first two onboard SATA ports should set SataPortMap to 2? I notice when I fist went to install it I had ports 3-6 disabled in the bios and it complained that there was a problem with drives 3,4,5,6. So I just re-enabled all the extra on-board SATA ports and it was happy. It looks funny in the drive map to have 1-2 "onboard SATA" and 7-11 "LSI ports" active
-
so far so good with my transition/upgrade from NAS4Free to XPEnolgy 6.1 "3615" on my E3-1220v3/16GB. I added an extra drive for a total of 5x 4TB, two 120GB SSDs instead of previous 1x 60GB, and an LSI 9211 IT mode without bios. Idle before was ~48 watts, with the extra hardware its gone up only 14 watts.
