Review on Diskless Synology DiskStation DS418-4 Bay NAS for Enhanced Storage by Jnis teins

Instead of a thousand words, read reviews on "apps" from this buggy company. For example on the play store. About software for PC - without hard mats - it will not work at all. It is difficult to call these crafts of theirs even software. The resonant noise from the box, as already mentioned here, is simply unacceptable. Stands on a shelf in the pantry behind 2 doors. These vibrations are heard at night. Now I have to turn it off at night! Hand-face. And synologists call this box HOME SERVER. And yes, without shamanism, it will not work normally OUT OF THE BOX. For example: I had to disable unnecessary or disgustingly working services that constantly load the server by 90%. For example, a pathetic craft Moments. And for this you need to smoke forums. First, I found out where the place is leaking every day - the number of versions for each file by default is 20 (!) - so the files multiplied after each access and synchronization. Changed to 1. In short, read what they write not enthusiastic Linux geeks, for whom this is a toy "which can and should be configured and licked", but read the reviews of ordinary people who wanted to buy and make it work. This piece of iron is not one of those. More precisely, the hardware can be quite good, optimized (they just forgot about the noise), but without normal software - this is hardware - a pile of metal for 2-3 points. The most disgusting thing is that Sinology ABSOLUTELY ignores our entire community! Some important requests hang for 2 years and are not resolved in principle! Owners of slightly older NAS versions are simply ignored by Sinology in the new versions for mobile phones. This is an opinion after 2 months of torment and attempts to bend the indomitable wooden default software. It became clear that all the chips of this device are just a competent advertising company. We'll have to follow the path of Linuxoids and "work with a file" ;-(
