Polanskiman Posted December 15, 2019 Share #3 Posted December 15, 2019 In case you really need to have your actual CPU show you can use this tool: Keep in mind that it will not survive updates and you will need to apply the patch again.

TomLuke Posted December 15, 2019 Author Share #4 Posted December 15, 2019 Thank you both for the reply The machine has 120G SSD, and I want to add a HD to the machine, so I shut the machine down, and add a 500G HD(old one, still working), when I turn on the machine(without USB drive), it seems not boot, the screen shows just a blink cursor. Is that means: I need the USB drive with loader each time the machine start? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its also best to disable all other boot devices except the USB in bios Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This said, if that drive dies/get corrupted then you could potentially lose your data but also your server will be offline until you get a new drive. RAID is not designed for backup but for performance and data redundancy or even both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomLuke Posted December 18, 2019 Author Share #9 Posted December 18, 2019 the first time I install the system, I use a 120G SSD, upon finish, is there any codes installed on that SSD or in USB drive(bootloader reside)?(I use the method of press "C" while bootloader start, and type PID/VID/SN/MAC, etc.) Today I put a 500G HD on, and use storage manager to create a "basic" RAID and volume. I will add another 500G HD later. I was wonder if I make a RAID 1 with 2 500G HD, do I need to install the codes again from that 120G SSD to 500G RAID 1? Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polanskiman Posted December 18, 2019 Share #10 Posted December 18, 2019 By « codes » I suppose you are talking about VID/PID and MAC address. Those only have to be added once unless you change the usb key. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomLuke Posted December 18, 2019 Author Share #12 Posted December 18, 2019 When I install for the first time, I use a USB drive and just a single 120G SSD, I choose "manual install" in a browser, and choose the .pat file, I was wonder where the .pat file was installed, is it installed on that 120G SSD? I will install 2 500G HD later, this 2 500G HD will form a RAID 1, as IG-88 said, that .pat file is on that 120G SSD, then I cannot remove the SSD after I install 500G HD?

TomLuke Posted December 19, 2019 Author Share #16 Posted December 19, 2019 All the SSD/HD are the one not used, maybe I have to buy some T-bytes HD to form RAID, 500G is too small. I will install the new HD while the 120G SSD is connected, and do the volume build, then remove the 120G SSD. I believe this will leave the installed DSM pat file there. By the way, I only see one NIC on DSM screen, not sure why other NIC did not show up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomLuke Posted December 23, 2019 Author Share #18 Posted December 23, 2019 I got 2 500G HD, create RAID 1 volume, and remove the 120Gssd, it works fine. I also install the surveillance station, and it works too. I would like to know: it has 2 cam license by default, can I add new license to it? since it said: it will connect to synology to validate the license key.

Hackaro Posted March 1, 2020 Share #21 Posted March 1, 2020 Hi I am planning to go with the same motherboard, what would be a nice choice for an additional AHCI SATA 8 ports controller? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hackaro Posted May 7, 2020 Share #23 Posted May 7, 2020 Hi there, @TomLuke @IG-88 I have success in installing DSM 6.2.2 on this same motherboard with an Intel i3-8100, with jun loader 1.04 and DS918+ pat system. I'm very happy about that! Thank you all for the precious informations! And I've successfully followed the procedure for updating the cosmetic info about my CPU in DSM. Now I have a couple of questions: Tom, do you have success in having WOL correctly working on I-210 or i-219? I correctly set the WOL options in DSM but I'ven't yet had any positive result. Startup/Shutdown in scheduler are working if this is of any help. I have 16 HDDs slot in Storage Manager even if my mb has only 8 SATA ports, is it normal? Do I have to modify some config file to have the proper number of slots correctly shown in DSM? I have to transfer my set of four SHR raid HDD's from my previous Synology Ds916, which is working with a newer version of DSM (6.2.3 at the moment), can I safely transfer them or am I in danger? which is the best practise for doing it (I don't have enough space to backup everything!!! Sorry!)? Thanks in advance! And Stay safe from Covid! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
