Anybody know what is the conversion progress in file station converting? It seems like taking forever to convert.. Anyway to disable it? Thanks.

Did you see the icon on the top right corner telling you it is converting some files?

is it ok for NAS to on when you need to use and switch off if you do not need to use instead of 24/7

How often are you doing that? How long are you keeping your NAS on each time you use it?

Is it safe? Able to have access remotely?

Very safe. Just that you need to do some NAT forwarding on your router so that it can access your NAS through the Internet.

I created a shared folder in file station. But it does not appear on cloud station. Anybody having the the same problem and manage to solve it?

[gooifier]

Hi guys,

I noticed this funny and frustrating issue when transferring files to my Synology 213

As I am dealing with photos, I usually transfer a lot of files (to up 1000+) at a time. Usually I will map the folder (on Synology) onto my Mac desktop (through SMB protocol)

Recently, I realized the transfer is not done completely, meaning if i transfer 1000 files, only 900+ files will be transferred and OSX nor Synology will prompt a error on the incomplete file transfer.

Another funny thing i discovered is that the so called 'missing' files may be found in the Synology's recycle bin.

Anyone facing this issue too and any rectification to it?

TIA

Will there be any duplicate file name?

Hi

Sorry but I dun get your question. Excuse my lack of knowledge.

The files i am transferring should have a unique name as they are buy numbers (from a DSLR)

I just did a test again, transferring lots of files over. True enough, some files didnt get transfer over to my desired folder and ended up in the 'recycled bin' of that folder.....

Why man?

cloud station can't create a shared folder, I only created a shared folder in file station using dsm.

Hey guys, I just gotten a ds213j with a 3TB WD red but I am
experiencing some issues now...

1) Cannot access the NAS from the Internet (outside of home network) - My router is Asus RT- AC66U and I have done port forwarding for the router, with ports such as 5000, 5005 and 5006 opened. However, I still cannot connect to the NAS with the IP address. Upon using the open port check tool, it says connection timeout.

2) After I have done port forwarding yesterday, today the synology assistant and replicator is unable to detect the ds213j. However, I am able to access it using the IP address. Why is this so!

Please kindly advise!

1. If your ISP is starhub, You need to port forward to some other numbers not used in NAS configuration. I'm using port 82, and to remote access you need to create a DDNS account follow by setting up the configuration in DSM.

2. This I'm not sure as I don't use synology assistant & replicator. I usually key in my IP:5000

Hope this helps.

My definition of safe in this case would be "No one else can access my NAS from outside... and have access to my files"

My NAS is now holding a lot of important contents.. like my CC, documents etc..

Once you go online, nothing is safe.
