Previously you still on DSM 6.2?
Photos I feel looks better than Photo Station and Moments. Only the access permission a bit pain to setup.

Previous is still DSM 6.2. I reluctant to change is because worry about the Photo and movie. I have ton's of it in the NAS.

It is not about the look. But the folder and file arrangement is according to my way with the older ver.

With DSM 7.1.1-42962, all change. The way pic arrange and album is different and present on the site.

Family and friend sharing had to setup again and I lost. I got to teach them again how to use. And they are not all in Malaysia.

Ouch, unless can downgrade back. DSM 6.2 also going to stop receiving update from 2024 IINM so changing to DSM 7 and Photos is inevitable.

The auto backup setting will be harder to do remotely as got many settings. Now also better can specify which folders in DCIM to backup, previously it will backup everything in DCIM but some phones and app the screenshot and edited photos also save in folder in DCIM which automatically also will be backup.

That's why I m regret to update.

Now I m rushing to learn and organise some new photos into the NAS. Tomorrow got to teach a group of friends how to use and upload their photos. Farking hell.

eh can auto backup one meih

I think it does, the settings doesn't mention option of auto backup though. Or maybe I frequently open the app, when open it will run backup.

owh never thought it can backup from phone will check it later

container manager is awesome in 7.2

so anyone try this SMB3 Multichannel

Tried NAS (x3) : PC (x2) - Throttling below 100Mbps (maybe true as diagram below)

Then Nas (x3) : PC (x3) - Highest 500Mbps each line (~1.5Gbps)



still lower than 2.5Gbe... is it better using multichannel compared to single ?

managed switch or unmanaged? i heard got different in transfer rate

unmanaged switch TRENDnet 8-Port Unmanaged 2.5G Switch

If I go direct without multichannel can get 2.5Gbe (~300MB/s)

Container Manager now showing the app version number or if it's latest. But doesn't seem to be up to date, it show Pihole is latest but it is actually not. After I download the latest image it still only show 1 image. Still need to use Portainer to delete old image.

Recently migrated all my dockers to Proxmox LXCs. This dude has made it super simple with his scripts. Check it out --> https://tteck.github.io/Proxmox/

Pretty sweet..

I tested install Synology 7.1.1 on my 10 years old crappy laptop
Surprisingly it works
I'm afraid the CPU & HDD temperature

Synology Drive app got new update and it added a lot new functions.


Now can easily add folders for sync. Click the 3 dots on any folder then can choose to enable sync task


For my Camera folder that I already create task for sync, it show as option to disable the sync task instead.


Focused Backup and Sync works the same as Synology Photos function of Focused Backup, it will dim the screen to save battery while doing sync. Useful if your sync is too big.


Video files now can see thumbnails. Yay! Now no need to play the video just to check which is which.

Preview PDF and Microsoft Office also useful, no need open on another app.

Is it safe to enable QuickConnect

With 2FA or SecureSignIn it is as safe as using Google Drive or Dropbox. There's still the risk of 0 day exploit but based on Synology track record I feel the risk is low.
Having another layer of security such as use VPN of course will be more safer.

If don't want to expose your whole NAS to internet but want to have own hosted cloud storage, maybe you want to be able to give link to outsiders to download from your NAS. Can use your NAS to run VM of another DSM and this DSM that will be exposed to the internet.

I knew a SME that use QC with the default ports. It's been a few years and they are still fine.

Keep your DSM updated and configure DSM properly to prevent brute force attack then you should be fine.

For the bare minimum, use a different port to deter the mass scanning brute force attacks.

It's always a balance between security and convenience.

Been using QC for very long. Till now.

So far so good.

Yup did have 2FA not thinking of other things beside the Drive only then feels better

Owh i did change it, btw just home user

make me more convenience then
