Xpenology on RPi 4

[tomsk]

Hello,

 

I found this project for Raspberry Pi 4 --> https://shop.allnetchina.cn/collections/sata-hat/products/quad-sata-hat-case-for-raspberry-pi-4

 

and I have spare Raspberry Pi 4 at home, so I wonder if Xpenology can be installed on Raspberry Pi 4, I mean some Synology NASes have ARM CPU, so I think there should be ARM support.

 

Thank you

This is a question which has been asked a few times before. In short: there‘s no loader available which supports ARM. Somebody has to reverse engineer an appropiate Synology and I don‘t think that this will ever happen. Think of the fact that Jun is the only one who has released a  working loader for DSM 6. If it would be that easy then there would be many other loaders.

xpenology uses a hacked bootloader and its specific for a model each, all three are x86_64

 

maybe OMV is a nas for you?

yea I know it, but I love DSM, so I think I will find hardware for x86 Xpenology.
