  1. Hello, There are many options but let me give you two that I have used. Firstly, you need to register with a free DDNS service as the first step. Some sites offer good SSL encryption as well, I highly suggest you do this as well. This makes it easy for you to reach your server from anywhere in the world. Second task you need to go into your router and to enable port forwarding to your DSM. DSM uses port 5000 and 5001 for https. Of course as mentioned earlier, ensure you have a valid certificate on your server so it can encrypt SSL traffic. Ok this is one method which is just to access to your DSM from anywhere. The second I use is to install Synology Drive. This makes it easy to access your data from any device. It's reminds me of your cloud service. Again, same method as above but you will need to do port forwarding on your router to make this work. I personally use Synology Drive. Click here to see all the services you can use to port forward in your router.
  2. Depends on your use case, for example I had to switch over to Btrfs because I wanted to run VM's. ext4 is still a good choice as a file system.
  3. Never mind, I figured it out ๐Ÿ˜‚ - What a rush!!! lol Just go into the BIOS and disable internal SATA /IDE because it's not needed anymore. I only left the HBA card on then... BOOM!! All in the right sequence after reboot! No need for manual mapping ๐Ÿ˜‰ Dell R620 Server with SAS HBA controller in IT mode is now finished. SAS Screenshot:
  4. Hello, Just a quick bump on the thread here. I had time to do some hacking today and I was able to use ARLP i18n (23.10.0.4) on the Dell R620. All drives and network card auto detected and I was able to load DSM 7.2.1 69057 update 1 with no issue. I'm using 3622xsp+ profile but for some reason the drives are not in the proper sequence. Any tips to fix the mapping in ARLP?
  5. - Outcome of the update: SUCCESSFUL - DSM version prior update: DSM 7.2-64570 update 3 - Loader version and model: ARPL-i18n 23.9.6 / DS3622xs+ - DSM version AFTER update: DSM 7.2.1 69057 Update 1 - Using custom extra.lzma: NO - Installation type: BAREMETAL - Dell PowerEdge R210 II, Intel Xeon E3-1200, 32 GB Mem, Broadcom 5709 Dual Port Gigabit Ethernet (BNX2) - Additional comments: Upgrade was flawless!
  6. Nice! I'll work on my server when I have time. Let me know how it goes for you. ๐Ÿ™‚
  7. Hi, In my opinion it should work. Which boot loader are you using?
  8. Hi guys, I'm not sure if it's the hardware but the installation of Windows 10 as a VM took forever!! Finally after installing the VM I installed Synology_VMM_Guest_Tool_1.5.3-0015 and the performance is so slow. Is this a QEMU terminal thing? Because my experience with ESXi is that close to baremetal performance when using any Virtual Machine. Just for reference I have the following specs: CPU: INTEL Xeon D-1531 (6 Cores) 3.1 Ghz 32 GB Memory 9 TB Storage on Raid 5 Just to add: I had ESXi on this same machine a while back and all the VMs were flawless.
  9. Never mind I was able to reset DSM using a console cable. What a hot mess! ๐Ÿ˜… I felt like all my data was gone, but i was able to reinstall dsm and see all data in the drives.
  10. Hello guys, I started messing with LACP bond settings on my switch and on the DSM, I wanted to increase throughput using muilple NiCs - but somehow I lost connection to DSM. I'm wondering if there's a way to manually remove the LACP bond and start over again from DSM via the console port. Any help is appriciated!
  11. I had a little time to check on this reference you posted for adding the firmware file. So when I go into TCRP console and go to the root directory - I see \lib but there is no path that indicates \lib\firmware folder is there. In fact, when I create the firmware folder manually and add the missing .fw file above, it gets erased when I reboot. Perhaps I'm not in the right partition of the USB? let me know. Also, I'm running UEFI Mode so I checked \lib64 as well... the same thing.
  12. Ok so just a quick update on the R210 II server. I managed to get it working by using an external USB dongle at the beginning. It was just the quick and dirty way to get TCRP up and running without searching for network drivers - i'm lazy ๐Ÿ˜œ , I was able to build the DSM and add the needed proper extensions for the network driver. Honestly, I learned a lot working with TCRP... Nice little loader and hats off to pocopico for his contributions to the community. I have it working with ds3622xsp-7.2.0 64561 build Both NICS are working I needed to add e1000 extension so DSM can recognize them. Full 1000 Mbps and Full Duplex as well, so good speed. Ihave an ESATA external drive 4 drive bay - at that was also recognized, however, I have a slight problem with the drive count. So I have six 2 TB drives and it only recognized 5 of them. I have to check why it's not recognizing the last drive. I made it this far - so it's a small win for me this weekend. Woohoo!
  13. Ok I added the extension for the NIC card and that worked for me, however the extensions for the raid controller did not work. I added both of the extensions. My controller card is the H710 mini on LSI / HBA IT mode if this helps.
  14. Thank you rojoone2 - I will try 7.1.0 instead and build from there. Let's see how it goes. ๐Ÿ™‚
  15. I'm using TinyCore RedPill 0.9.4.8 - Another issue I face is the network cards, they stop working after Launch DSM. It pings for like a minute then it stops. In LSI HBA IT Mode the drives are also not in the correct order in the Bios, i'm guessing i can fix that later. My biggest issue is getting the LSI HBA Raid controller to be recognized by DSM. I'm using DS3622+ build.
