Just stumbled across your KZbin page by doing a search on Synology Diskstation manager. I've learned more about using my NAS drive in the past 20 minutes watching two of your videos than I had in the previous couple of months. Will be watching a lot of your stuff in upcoming weeks. Thanks so much for taking the time to do these videos!

Thanks you for these superb presentations. As a new Synology NAS owner, I am learning from scratch. Your videos are invaluable in allowing me to do this myself and skipping the large consulting fees I had anticipated. As I am not very technical, so I don't know if this is correct: I hope widespread adoption of NAS will help to restore the original peer-to-peer web architecture.

One of the big features of HyperBackup is setting up rsync backups between NAS's. I just moved from a Asustor to a Synology, so I mostly used it's counterpart on the Asustor, but if you upgraded to a newer Synology or from a Synology to a different brand NAS, or just have more than one NAS, moving that much data NAS to NAS; this is the only way to go. Thanks for a great video and thank for sharing.

@SpaceRexWill on the back up issue, this is a newbie question: if i have 2 hard drives with 1 backing up the other, does it mean my files in Synology have been automatically backed up already? Also since I do not have "Active Backup for Business" in my package, How do I backup my Laptop on Synology for home users?
@SpaceRexWill
@SpaceRexWill Жыл бұрын
So you likely have RAID1 or SHR1, as your 'one drive backing up the other' which is good for redundancy, but not for an actual backup. The reason its not a backup is any change is immediately on both drives, so if the volume crashes, both crash. I would look at a cheap external HDD when you can afford one! Having RAID is better than nothing, but not a full backup if you don't have ABB your NAS might not be compatable with it (non plus models)

Hey SpaceRex, I'm new to Synology and NAS configurations in general so thanks a lot for your many videos that help me lot it is greatly appreciated! That being said I'd like to discuss the SMB vs Drive point (granted with the lens of a windows user using his Synology as a private cloud storage mainly for the family, inside and outside of the household). Under this usecase, it seems much more convenient to set up the Drive and access all the directories through there (also when on the local network) rather than SMB. That way nothing changes when you're out and about or locally plugged in, all your files are at the same place. This is especially convenient in the case you're doing edits on massive files as you're working on the local version where you're not limited by network speed or NAS usage, granted this could lead to merge issue on Teams files but that can be managed easily in a small family setting. Granted it requires a bit of work to configure your network correctly (if you're not using quickconnet) but once it work it seems pretty seamless. Finally on PC (I understand this might not be the case on Mac) you have the added benefit of being able to select which files should always be made available locally on your machine while the rest remains "in the cloud" and are available on demand. That's a long bit of text but I wanted to have your view on why you suggest to use SMB over Drive. Many thanks!

From my perspective there are some glaring omissions in Synology Photos. No on screen GPS map display, either showing you where all of your photos were taken, nor a map location for each photo. Also HVEC format is not supported (official advice from Synology Helpdesk) unless those files already existed on DSM 6 when the upgrade was done.

06:50, don't enable quick connect if you want protect your data, quick connect allows Synology technician login to your NAS even when you sleep. Use it only when your ISP is somehow blocking your connection outside of your home - in example your IP is private and only when you need it in example you are going for vacation. Even if you have dynamic IP use DDNS which is even built in NAS (I personaly use DDNS on my router). Always do prefer port forwarding and never show how ports are forwarded. This step is easy so even if you don't know it in your family or work should be at least one person who can make it, just ask. Also don't use uPnP feature, disable it on router and manually forward specific ports. This will work for years until you change router or reset it to factory state - so always make backup of configuration of your router.

Phoenix Arizona I just came across your channel today and been watching a few videos. I’m a little bit confused. I’m just starting to do my research and Nas drives. I’m just a Home user. But when you say you’ve got to make sure you back up your stuff. The whole purpose of this Nas drive is the back of everything you have. That’s my understanding, correct? So why would we need a separate back up application? Doesn’t Synology have built-in back up scheduling and all that so I can tell the back up my laptop and back up my iPhone and back up my PC different days and times? A little bit confused here when you said that you still need to keep back ups even though you have an ass drive. I do understand about keeping a separate back up outside because it’s your house catches fire in your Nas box burns after you don’t have a back up maybe that’s what you’re referring to. Thank you.

Re: SMB... Unless I'm doing something wrong, when using only SMB2 or above, the Synology ( or QNAP ) will not appear under "Network" in Windows Explorer. As a result, you have to map every shared folder that you want to access. I ignore current advice, and use SMB 1 to avoid this problem. I do not access my NAS over the internet and do not forward any router ports so I assume that I'm a low level target. I'd really like your thoughts.

why do you state to always use smb and then you show a mac? I've found afp: to be much more reliable on Mac OS for synology shares than smb (years ago) and I never went back to using smb on Mac OS.

AFP is deprecated and can (in edge cases) cause file corruption. SMB has improved a ton with never versions of MacOS and in my option is much better

WHy SMB? NFS is faster and potentially more secure. Just curious.

Another great video 👍 Would love to see a video on Plex. It's something I use but not to its fullest potential. I don't even know how to get it working with Port Forwarding etc so that I can share externally 😫

After googling and redditing, one thing I found annoying with Synology Photos is the absence of an option allowing to delete a photo from your phone as you upload it to the NAS. I'm a new user, so if anyone is more NAS-savvy, I'd love to hear a solution!

SMB doesn't work with cellular network, that is if we connect to the Internet through a mobile hotspot. Infact, even FTP doesn't work.

People who don't use the photos search function is because either they don't have many, never look or share, or haven't try searching. Because once you experience it, you will ask how is this not the standard.

Hi, I have installed dsm 7, and synology photos. Now, I want to share ALL my photos to my wife and kids. How?
@SpaceRexWill
@SpaceRexWill 3 жыл бұрын
1) enable shared space 2) put all of your photos in the /photo shared folder (this is "shared space") 3) Create accounts for your wife and kids 4) Through photos give your wife and kids "management" access to shared space now they will have access to all of the shared photos
