I am an IT guy who is currently stuck at home getting medical treatment. Since I have time to sit in front of my computer and do some fun things, I decided to research newer NAS devices and discovered Xpenology in my search.
The reason I joined was to discover a way to install DSM 6.2 on a Iomega/EMC/Lenovo px4-300d NAS. It is an older NAS, and I was thinking of replacing it with a Synology DS1019+. However, I would like to see how DSM works first. And it seems like a great way to play with the old NAS instead of trashing it.
Any help on how to perform this process would be appreciated. I have already created a USB drive per the beginners instructions, but am not exactly sure how to get it installed on that NAS itself. What type of cable do I need to get it connected to my PC? Baud rates for serial connection, etc. would be helpful.
