deklan Posted October 29, 2018 Share #1 Posted October 29, 2018 Hello everybody, I'm using 916+ DSM 6.1 for 6 month now (ASRock J3455-ITX, HP NC110T ) and I am very happy with it. Only issue I have is that I have to stay on Virtual Machine Manager Beta because I have to set CPU compatibility mode (which is free to use in beta version). Every few weeks I check this forum and think I have to upgrade to 918+ DSM 6.2. Then I read some threads with performance issues like copy speed, boot time and so on and I decide to stay on DSM 6.1 So... is there any advantage to upgrade to 918+ DSM 6.2 (except another ~2 years updates and support)? Is the feeling and performance withe the J3455 board on 918+ DSM6.2 as good as 916+ DSM6.1 now? What would you do? Thanks for your feedback Dennis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deklan Posted November 2, 2018 Author Share #2 Posted November 2, 2018 (edited) I can answer the question by my own now. Yesterday I made a clean installation of DSM 6.2.1-23824 + Juns 1.04b on an empty USB stick and old 500GB HDD. Installation went fine but everything seems to be slower than usual e.g. NFS file copy startet with 110MB/s and finished with 70MB/s (100GB file), installation of Lubuntu VM took ~1hr, DSM apps start slower than usual So I will stay on DSM 6.1 for a while.

smingoli Posted February 17, 2019 Share #5 Posted February 17, 2019 Thanks for the info. I'm new to xpenology just bough myself an asrock j3455 and was planning the installation so I guess I'll go for 6.1. Just a couple of questions: Will the NIC of the Asrock J3455-ITX work out of the box with jun's loader 1.02b and what is the throughput I can expect when copying files via SMB?
