    Upgrade of DSM versions

    in Archives

    Posted

    Finally, got some time. Did my back-up of the custom-made xpenology with DSM 4.1 on a DS114, so I was clear for the update.

     

    The upgrade from 4.1 to 5.0 + Upd1 + Upd2 using Nanoboot image WENT WELL !!! I did not experience any problems (which does not mean that others will also not have problems ...). One known thing: you need to give yourself again permissions for the shared folders

    Now, USB3 is working fine on my ASRock Atom board and I have the new Synology features.

     

    I have followed the instructions here https://www-user.tu-chemnitz.de/~ddet/tutorials/tutorial-xpenology-update-von-aelteren-versionen/, and also checked xpenology.nl for the files.

     

    Last but not least: when I shot down my "old" xpenology for the upgrde, the status window was reporting 365 Days Up-Time, status Good, drives Healthy.

    A BIG Thank You both to the enthusiasts here as well as Synology team for delivering us a pleasant NAS experience!!!!!!

     

    Cheers

    Upgrade of DSM versions

    in Archives

    Posted

    Hi there,

     

    I was googling a lot inside and outside this forum, in order to find a way to upgrade XPenology DSM.

    I am having 4.1 and would like to go to 4.3 without data loss. I understand that there is always a risk of data loss, as this is not a commercial product. But still, assuming I have done my back-up, I want to upgrade in a way that would not wipe my data ( unless sh#&*t happens :smile: ) .

     

    Can somebody point me to the right procedure to do that? Is that possible at all ?

     

    Thanks y lot in advance for advices,

    XPEnology DS3612xs DSM 4.1 build 2668++ (more hardware)

    in DSM 5.2 and earlier (Legacy)

    Posted

    Hi! First of all, thanks for your great work to make DSM available to us!

    I have installed DSM 4.1 2668++ on Asrock AD2550-ITX http://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/AD2550-ITX/index.asp (Dual core Atom, Intel NM10 Express, USB 3.0 with ASMedia ASM1042) and it works quite well, well with one exception though: USB.

     

    I have disabled the USB 3.0 interface. On the USB 2.0, I added my HP printer and it is correctly recognized by the DSM in the list of the "External Devices". But no luck at all with USB drives: I have tried 2 card readers, 4 USB sticks, one WD drive - no luck at all. I have seen some other questions like this, but no answer at all.

     

    Could you please give us a hint, whether we can fix it ourselves, or you plan to work at this?

     

    Thanks a lot in advance!
