I use an Intel Pro 1000 PT people also talk about the HP 360T. The common factor is they use the Intel e1000e driver built into DSM. Meaning they are natively supported.
1.04b is only for the 918 and it may not have a supported PCIe network card list but the 1.03b for 3615xs does have that on the synology site.
1.04b is good if you are trying to do hardware acceleration for video, otherwise I do not think there is a benefit. The actual versions of DSM are the same for both loaders. -
Hi,
I'm planning to upgrade my ASRock Q1900DC-ITX from DSM 6.1 to DSM 6.2.
In some test I recognized that the interal network card is not recognized by the latest Version of DSM 6.2
I added a Intel 82576 network card, but that works only with Loader v1.03b.
Now my question:
Will v1.03b be supported in future and is there a recomended network card for v1.04b (PCIe 2.0 x1)?
The thing is that if I buy a new networkiadapter, it shoud be compatible to the next loader an DSM Versions.
Thanks for your help!
I am not sure how safe the currently working cards are, however I believe 6.2 will receive 2 years of security updates after 7.0 comes out. -
Search the forums on how t check which network driver your machine is currently using. If it’s an e1000e it’s pretty safe.
I can search from a desktop to find it if you cannot.-

Did you configure it to use legacy bios instead of UEFI for 1.03b?I was planning to use the 1.03b loader and stick with the 3215xs. My findings:
1.02b was and is still working perfect
1.04b worked after bios upgrade (looks to work without and with internal NIC disabled). Before bios upgrade I got the “13”error.
1.03b starts but cant be discovered on the network. Have internal NIC disabled and NC360T installed (based on this forum, especialle microserver topic, this looks a supported card).
Am is missing something with 1.03b loader (bios setting, extra drivers or something else like that)?
I do not have real SN and mac. Any disadvantages for 1.04b over 1.03b or is it best to update my actual system with 1.04b?
Hardware:
Asus H87i-Plus
CPU: Pentium G3420
NIC HP NC360T -
You will need to get a different network card and disable the one onboard.
Known good network cards are called out in this thread.

Check which Network Driver is loaded with DSM. If it's not an e1000e you will have an issue. Look lower in the thread below on commands I used to check network drivers.

I am using 1.03b DS3615xs version with Legacy Boot. I was under the impression that it only works that way.

Why not just use the DS3615XS 1.03b loader?Hi Guys,
is there any Chance to get a MBR-Version of the 918+ Loader V1.04..
i tried so much to convert these Loaders (also 1.03b) but without success..
Cause my Supermicro X7DBP-i won't boot from GPT..
or any hints would be also helpful..
Thanks a lot.. -

I was successfully with DS3615xs 1.03b loader.
I did have to delete the old xpenoboot folder as detailed below to resolve my network issues after I migrated from the 3617 to the 3615.

I have an Intel Gigabit PRO 1000 CT that can load 1.04b on the current update, but it does not show the network adapter in the network list. I also have not been able to update all the way with the DS3617XS loader.
I am considering getting the HP card, but I am not sure that is my issue.
I am continuing research and it looks like with 1.04b, the issue I was having may be fixed by doing this:
-------------------------------------
@XbladeX From earlier experience with a problem like that:
try these steps:
Activate the SSH service in DSM (if not active)
Connect to your NAS with an SSH client (e.g. putty) (or from Win 10, open a cmd window, run : ssh admin@my.nas.ip (replace with the actual IP)
Enter your credentials (user: admin)
Change folder to root (cd /)
Delete the xpenoboot folder (sudo rm -r .xpenoboot)
If the SSH service keeps stopping, you have to be quick.--------------------------------------
I have an e1000e drive loaded for my NIC. I disabled all my other NICs. To check what driver your NIC is using, log into SSH and run these commands.
(I got this info from another person on the forum)
----------------------------------------------
Open a SSH connection to your NAS, and type:
lspci | grep 0200 (this will list your nic's)
you should see something like:
... Device 8086:xxxx (indicating Intel)
This should be eth0, so type:
ethtool -i eth0
you should see something like:
driver: e1000e (this is a driver supported in 6.2.1)
If not, try using the above :xxxx device id to check if it is supported by the bootloader/DSM version you will try to us------------------------------------------------

Are you using the ds3615xs or ds3617xs loader?

I found this approach from reddit better.

I use drive with DDNS.

I run Plex as a native package. I only have to reboot for updates or maintenance. Sometimes it will go many months.
-
Depends on use. As a file server, it's very good. Plex transcoding should be pretty decent as well.I have a old gaming rig i want to use for XPEnology and i want to know will this be good enough or is it overkill.

Plex supports video accelerated transcoding on some Synology boxes. I would at least look into that if I were looking today.

Necessary for photo station and video station to transcode.No it's not necessary. Never has been in fact. It has only been used for one thing and one thing only: the use of Quickconnect.

I use a deluge docker. It's worked for 2 years now.

I did. Nothing g strange reported though.
Did anyone RAID scrub after update following this email?

If it would have been like this 2 years back I would have just purchased a syno unit instead of building.It does work, I have N3150-ITX and DS916+ installed and regardless what I play I've get nearly 0% extra CPU utilisation [emoji3]
