One setup video started by changing the IP address. What!?!? This is a true beginners guide. Thank you!

Adding this comment for the future in case anyone else encounters this issue. After creating the storage pool & volume, my Control Panel was frozen. I did some googling and found that I needed to clear my cache. Note that I am a Mac user running OS Ventura and using Safari. I was able to clear my cache and that seemed to fix the issue.

thank you. Can I upgrade the harddrive after everything is set up?

Thank you for this detailed video. I have a question. In this NAS, can I do something like this? I would have a pc and I want to sync a local folder named "XYZ" (or multiple folders) on my PC to the NAS in real time. Which means that any work or edit I do in that folder or folders, it will automatically back that up or sync that in the NAS. Is this possible in DS223j? Thank you.

Where did you find File Station after closing the window? I don't have such a folder on my desktop!

Such a great video for an absolute newby (me) at this techy stuff. When I try to open from the local drive, it opens it in my Web browser. I can't seem to get it to open in my device's file explorer... Does that matter?

Haaaaaa solved it... Had the wrong slashes 🙈🙈🙈

Thank you for the overview, that was very helpful. I'm just not clear of what the benefit of setting up Tailscale is. You said that by using that global IP address, you can now access the NAS from anywhere in the world. But can't you do that anyway through the DSM web app? I was able to access my files while not on my home network without doing this. I'm struggling to understand what the benefit of Tailscale is, and how you use it.

Same here! Why use tailscale?

Have you tried running plex on it? Just got mine. I’m sort of getting mixed opinions on how plex runs. Btw in my case, it will mainly be for storing files manually and plex so no other apps will running in the background except for the plex server

@dablet 5 ай бұрын

I don't like plex. I just store files and let Kodi handle the files
