TNa681 Posted January 4, 2021 Share #1 Posted January 4, 2021 Hi everybody, want to let you know that I've succesfully installed DSM 6.1.7 (Baremetal) with Loader 1.02b for DS3615xs and extra.lzma v4.8. This Z420 has the boot block date 12/28/2011 It works great, and the best is all SATA AHCI as well as SCU ports. So in total there is now 10 SATA/SCU onboard ports available. Will be upgraded with a x540-t2 soon. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IG-88 Posted January 4, 2021 Share #2 Posted January 4, 2021 any problems with loader 1.03b (that one needs csm mode if its a uefi bios), dsm 6.2.3 get all the updates and hp might need a mbr version of the loader (at least my hp desktops do) https://xpenology.com/forum/topic/20270-dsm-62-loader-with-mbr-partition-table/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TNa681 Posted January 4, 2021 Author Share #3 Posted January 4, 2021 Not at all, just felt very comfortable with 1.02b and 6.1.7. In case of going to 1.03b do I need to put in another extra.lzma as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
