  1. I think you should switch to XPEnology on bare metal and throw away that FreeNAS. I did it and I don't even think of going back. No regrets! (Actually I tested all or most "NAS" OSes and none or better said, not even all combined are at 50% of what DSM is) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. Maybe it's connected to another network? Just saying. It happens to have at home 2WiFis and my tablet once got connected to the secondary one Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. Why not using nanoboot? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  4. If I would go now for building another XPEno box, I would definitively change the Q1900-ITX board with another one: the Q1900DC-ITX which is slightly expensive than the normal Q1900-ITX because it comes with a DC power adapter but it's definitively less expensive than a normal Q1900 with a PSU. The DC version also comes in handy as you'll not need an internal power supply and therefore, your box is even more silent and less noisy!!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  5. The AM1b-ITX cannot be compared with the Q1900-ITX unfortunately as the Q1900 comes with an embedded J1900 quad-core, low-powered Intel processor and the AM1B with no CPU. Both boards can be used for XPEnology and both have advantages: - AM1B-ITX can be fitted with another, more powerful 30W TDP CPU (that comes in handy only in transcoding cases-Plex) - AM1B-ITX uses normal DIMMS DDR3 memory that can be used in a desktop and theoretically can be adjusted to more than 16GB of RAM (not that you'll need it on bare metal XPEnology) on the same 2 DIMM slots - AM1B-ITX has a PCIe 16x port - AM1B-ITX comes with more USB 2.0 ports (+2) - AM1B-ITX comes with 4x SATA3 ports comparable with 2xSATA2 & 2xSATA3 ports (in case you don't run your XPEno box on SSD only, you'll not need more than SATA2) - Q1900-ITX comes with an embedded low power, quad core, fanless, 10W max TDP CPU @ 2GHz - Q1900-ITX comes with a mini-PCIe x1 port that can be fitted with a mSATA half-size SSD or half-size mSATA to SATA adapter (theoretically and practically, 7 disks can be installed on this board) - Q1900-ITX consumes less power than the AM1B and is cooler and more silent due to fanless CPU and low power SO-DIMM capability Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. I think any VPN will resolve the issue as it will encapsulates the traffic. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. Yes! Guys, for the God's sake, "Read The Fuckin Manual!". There are sooo many threads and posts in this regard that apparently no newbie is reading. Everyone is asking again and again the same thing. Sad.
  8. Sell that SSD on eBay or use it on another system. DSM is smart enough to copy itself on all disks For a good protection of your data, use 3 or more HDDs (preferably) of the same size. Take a look at synology's raid configurator to see the advantages of different raid matrixes. Good luck!
  9. Yup, use it. And stop downloading illegal stuff from the internet
  10. Look into Download Station settings
  11. Do you mean if it was encripted, I would be ok ? The traffic can be seen as p2p only with some badass firewalls and traffic analyzers when encrypted. Try to use it by default like this.
  12. Maybe you should just work on the settings and enable encryption. It could also be a coincidence
  13. Hi mate, depending where you live in this magical and wonderful world, you could get into trouble if you download a movie from the internet or you could just download thousands of TBs and nobody would say anything. It's the kind of traffic that's probably being monitored and not the used tool.
  14. I'm a happy user since more than a year. It's pretty awesome and working. Try to keep it updated and you'll have no issues.
  15. It shouldn't be a problem but try and buy if it working. The reason those disks are not in syno's HCL is because they didn't tested them.
  16. )) +1 I thought it's a Linux command or utility )
  17. You can definitively move the HDDs to a different physical environment!
  18. use my setup from my signature for a cheap, low power consumption and powerful nas.
  19. Then, you'll just need to update with Update 3 and there's another method that can be also found here
