There seems to be a lot of questions around Ryzen, Intel's i211's and other AMD related posts but not a ton of answers to those questions. I spent about 8 hours getting this to work and wanted to share some tips. I originally used the 1.01 (6.0.2) JUNS loader guide and that DID NOT work. I tired the extra.lzma and also tried it with both NICs plugged in, booting to both the Intel and AMD grub... Nothing worked. It would Post, load the GRUB loader and then find.synology.com couldn't find anything. I then used the 1.02B (6.1.3) JUNS loader guide and that worked like a charm. Make sure to the use Intel NIC port. Also, a couple notes of my own that I couldn't find any answer to but would have like to have known when I was having issues with the 6.0.2 loader. The VID and PID must be correct. The guide states this and this is because after you install DSM, DSM uses the USB drive and will look for the VID and PID. The SN as far as I can tell could be anything. This is used for Synology services such as QuickConnect. DO NOT USE Quickconnect (I'll be honest here, I'm new to this and Quickconnect is a Synology service and based on what everyone including mods on here say, dont use it!) The MAC address: I used my actual MAC address of my NIC... not the auto-generated one. I got this when I enabled PXE Boot because I didnt have an OS prior to install (I used https://jsfiddle.net/7Lorpu77/ to generate a SN, FYI, again it could be anything...) JUN stated some issues around "C1E function". I did run into a weird issue during my initial install and disabled this as a knee-jerk reaction. I will do more testing and see if I notice any issues. This will turn the multiplier down to 6x in an "unloaded" state to save on power which is a good thing most of the time for a NAS. Not even sure if this will work while I manually set the multiplier. The last thing I will note is my system specs: GA-AX370-Gaming K7 (rev. 1.0) Ryzen 1600 with Stock Cooler 8GB DDR4 3000 8GB SanDisk USB Drive Corsair 500W 80+ PSU **I bought a Ryzen for future growth as this is for my Homelab. I can use this as a HomePC, HTPC, or my gaming PC in the future and the Mobo/CPU will be plenty speedy. With that said, it is OVERKILL. I undervolted the Ryzen and slowed it down to 1.1V VCore (from 1.22500 IIRC) and also set the Multiplier and FSB to 20x100MHZ for a total for 2000mhz. This dropped the idle temp about 3* Celcius and also the running Wattage by about 10W. I plan to continue to test with this and drop it some more. With a cheap video card and one 1TB HDD, this setup is pulling around 58W idle. As you can see in the image it shows up as an i3 and only 2 core are showing as working but when I SSH into the DSM, 8 of the 12 cores are working.

Hi, I was running Oracle VM VirtualBox on an Intel Processor with this image: DS3615xs_DSM6.1_JunsMod_V1.02b_MBR_Genesys.img However, this PC was old and now defective. So, I have built a new PC with an AMD Ryzen 5 1600 processor, installed Oracle VM VirtualBox and have tried to run the DS3615xs_DSM6.1_JunsMod_V1.02b_MBR_Genesys.img image. I'm able to start the image, see 15-09-2018 14-24-37.jpg, but http://find.synology.com can't find the DS2615xs. Had a look in my Router, but no IP-adres was assigned to the NAS. I have the impression, that this image can't be run because of the AMD processor. Please find attached the Oracle Virtual Box log files. My hope is, that there is a way to get this working (fix or workaround). BR, XPEgebruiker. VBox.log VBoxHardening.log

Hi, I'm starting a NAS build and have looked at other solutions like FreeNas and Unraid, but they doesen't seem to like Ryzen. Have anyone here tried a Ryzen build? I have a Ryzen 1800X with Asus Prime Pro 370S mobo, one SSD and 7 8tb wd red, will it work? Only usage will be PLex.
