Spudbynight Posted February 15, 2014 Share #410 Posted February 15, 2014 OK - everything seems to have installed so far. Couple of small issues though 1) The HDD in bay 5 (the optical bay) isn't being detected. 2) Anyone know what sort of screwdriver I need to remove the torx looking screws on the included 250GB HDD with a microserver. Tried torx 10,15 and 20 and none fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try the screwdriver attached to the inside of the front door There are a load of drive fixing screws at the base of the door also (and 4 DVD screws near the screwdriver).

Spudbynight Posted February 17, 2014 Share #416 Posted February 17, 2014 I have XPEnology 4.3 installed and running. I am having an issue with file transfers though. I have a USB HDD plugged into the Microserver. It has about 2.5TB of data on it. I am trying to copy that onto the NAS but it keeps falling over. What will happen is it will start moving the data across and then at some apparently random point it will stop the operation. I have managed to get about 500GB across so far but it is in dribs and drabs and is proving very infuriating. Sometimes I get an error message saying the operation has failed but most of the time nothing. At other times the transfer won't even start. EDIT : Found out what was causing some transfers not to start. I had ended up with some duplicate files during the data move and it was skipping those when I was trying to move these into folders with dupes present. Still unsure what is causing other transfers to stop midway through though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spudbynight Posted February 18, 2014 Share #418 Posted February 18, 2014 Couldn't figure out what was causing the issue with those file transfers. I ended up deleting a load of stuff out of frustration. I am unable to get XBMC to connect to it via SMB or NFS. I have followed the guides on the XBMC wiki without any success. If I try and connect over SMB I see the "Diskserver" under the workgroup. When I try to select it to browse for the relevant share I get an error saying "connection timed out" When I try and connect via NFS it times out if I try and browse to the share. (I have followed the guide on the XBMC wiki and have enabled the NFS settings correctly.) If I try and manually enter the address (in this case nfs://192.168.0.2/volume1/TV Shows/) when I hit the OK button I get the sound to signify a menu click and then XBMC becomes unresponsive. It then comes back with an error saying it couldn't find the share on the network. UPDATE Have managed to resolve the issue. I use home plugs on the network and the living room one plugged into a switch. I have removed the switch and am connecting directly. Share now show up. Don't know why it wasn't working beforehand. I could still connect to the XBMC machine over the network without issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bashy Posted February 26, 2014 Share #420 Posted February 26, 2014 Hi all an thanks for this, it was easy to setup and get running Stuck now on next part, very new to this or should i say first time. Being a noob how to i setup to access the server from outside the building, say work, mobile etc. I did try EZ-Wizard but it stopped half way through. I dont have a clue on settings like DDNS or port forwarding. Can anyone help me on setting this. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andywhit Posted February 26, 2014 Share #421 Posted February 26, 2014 If you installed DSM 4.3 build 3810++ (repack v1.0) then I'd hold off making the box accessible from the internet as there's a vulnerability in this version which can allow your system to be compromised. viewtopic.php?f=2&t=2049 Contains instructions on how to upgrade (but none of them worked for me).

Muaddib Posted February 27, 2014 Share #423 Posted February 27, 2014 Have anyone tried installing a Wi-Fi dongle to the N40L with synology on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muaddib Posted February 28, 2014 Share #425 Posted February 28, 2014 Why don't you try? If it doesn't work a reboot maybe required. I don't have a wifi dongle and won't waste 40$ on something that does not work. That why I asked in here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
