The proliant had it's own mac address's for both NIC's which it kept and differed from the first NAS. I did fail to mention that the original/first NAS was built from an old laptop. (Sorry about that). I am new to alot of this type of Modding/Hacking. I only ask for curiosity and/or Constructive Criticism, seeing as though i am learning. I had been working on this for about 5 days on/off. I finally chose a loader and .pat file that was closer to my CPU Family aka : Xeon (Xeon 5530 4core hyper = 8core ). It worked. I have a dl360 g6 (2x X5670 CPU (6core hyper = 12core)24core)(https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/products/47920/intel-xeon-processor-x5670-12m-cache-2-93-ghz-6-40-gt-s-intel-qpi.html) I am going to try on this as well. I will update as soon as i have attempted this. LOL
For you who might be wondering...WHY! Well first and for most, Cause I CAN!! and some of the software that has grown on me and i use daily but my first NAS is slowing due to running PLEX with about 4TB thus far of movies and about 25 family members that stream it. Speed is Needed!
Ok, ADHD, enough rambling on n on n on n on..... .. .. . . . Whew
Side note: I only use the synoboot.img from this loader (https://xpenology.club/downloads/ (ds3617xs 6.1 Jun’s Mod V1.02a2))
Any other questions, ask away, cause im sure my ADHD will certainly go WAYYYYYY off track!! 😵😎
