kozi Posted January 22, 2014 Share #1 Posted January 22, 2014 My system: N40L with DSM 4.3-3810 Update 4 (Installed with USB-Stick at internal interface) BIOS patched (http://www.hardwareluxx.de/community/f1 ... st21503128) Connecting a USB-HDD leads always to a system crash! Why? I have tested 2 different types of HDDs (HFS+ and ExFAT). Both are totally fine when connected to my MacBook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcdull Posted January 23, 2014 Share #2 Posted January 23, 2014 as I replied in other post. ex-fat is a no go. And I dont think HFS+ is supported either. Try some other format. I did fix mine by removing all partition of my USB disk and format it using the DSM. No crash any more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stanza Posted January 23, 2014 Share #5 Posted January 23, 2014 (edited) What is your SYSTEM? eg How many SATA Ports How many E-SATA Ports How many USB Ports you might have to fiddle with /etc/synoinfo.conf /etc.defaults/synoinfo.conf to get it setup correctly .

damdam Posted January 23, 2014 Share #7 Posted January 23, 2014 Same issue on N54L with HDD in both HFS+ and EXT4 formats (from my previous Synology DS110J). The main issue for me is not the HFS+ support but the crashing problem! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kozi Posted January 23, 2014 Author Share #8 Posted January 23, 2014 I have also tested a EXT4 harddrive and had no problems with this disk. So i only have problems with HFS+ since ExFAT is not supported at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stanza Posted January 23, 2014 Share #9 Posted January 23, 2014 What is your SYSTEM? This! http://n40l.wikia.com/wiki/Base_Hardware_N40L OK Default options are I believe is for DSM to think there are 11 USB ports (which the REAL DS3612xs probably has) Microserver only has 7 USB ports So you might have to change/try the 3 options below to something like the following If your using the following config 4 x SFF-8087 off motherboard >>> Backplane | Plus the Internal SATA Port for a total of 5 x HDD's And the E-SATA port is still being used as an E-SATA Port then change /etc.defaults/synoinfo.conf to esataportcfg="0x1000" usbportcfg="0xfc1" internalportcfg="0x2f" 4 x SFF-8087 off motherboard >>> Backplane | Plus the Internal SATA Port | Plus the E-SATA Port Looped back inside for 6 x HDD's then change /etc.defaults/synoinfo.conf and /etc/synoinfo.conf to esataportcfg="0x00" usbportcfg="0x1fc" internalportcfg="0x3f" Then reboot and try again, also look in "Storage Manager" / "HDD Manager" and see what drives are recognised....is the USB boot drive shown in there? .
