When you are in DSM and open the File Station panel, do you get a pop up telling you to install the latest Java suited for your OS? Why do they keep popping up - even after I had install the latest Java into my OS?

your browser may have disabled java from running, check ur browser plugin for java

Need help here from lao jiao bros. I migrated my 4x500gb from my old CS-406 to the DS413J and everything went smoothly (data and all) except for photo station. It was working ok with DSM3.1 on the CS-406 but now I basically can't open it even on my LAN. Tried un-install and re-install photo station but didn't work. But funny enough the pics are accessible on DS Photo+ app on my iphone and ipad.
See pic below on blank page on firefox and internal 500 server error on IE when I tried to open the link.

Hey guys,

A newbie here, just gotten my DS413J from Itshow.

I only bought a NAS red 2TB and used a old 500GB hitachi HDD.

If in future I were to change out the 500gb and add in 3 x 2TB, will it be a problem?

No, just remember to copy your important data out to somewhere else just in case before upsizing.

Got the 412+ and two 3GB WD Red. Any one using iSCSI? Pro and cons of it?

I can't seem to login to my DS through the internet, probably the ports are not forwarded. Will go try it out once I get my router up. Any advice what I should look out for?

Hi have u setup a free DDSN account from noip.com?
Once u sign up, configure the DDSN hostname using synology DDSN app found in the control panel.
Next configure port fwd on your router.
This should work.

Alright, thanks. I think I sort of understand..

Anyway, Now I facing some network problem.

So I installed wordpress on my NAS, port forward and everything is working. When I access from external, I used my DDNS xxx.xx/wordpress , I can load but when I click any link within wordpress, it redirects my internal IP instead, 192.168.1.xx/whateverlink.

Any idea why? Is it because I never activate the personal website function?

Currently have DS408 and DS412+ running in my gigalan. Just bought a APC UPS on the weekend. Planning to get a 802.3ad Netgear switch soon.

Transferred files from DS408 to DS412+ the average speed is about 20mb/s. From a DS412+ to another DS412+ average speed is about 70mb/s.

Can I chk with you did you copy via windows or you mount the second DS412+ from the first?

At first I did a Windows copy but figured that extra route may cause some bottlenecks, so I enabled the backup service in the NASes and did a backup from one to the other. No compression nor any options were selected to ensure that the backup is doing a direct copy.

Short answer yes. The slower NIC will slow down everything in your network. Nothing will be in gigabit.

I don't think this is correct... only devices talking to the slower NIC will drop down to the slower speed... but all gigabit devices talking to each other should not be adversely affected.

Is it? I just relating my personal experience. My NAS could not connect in gigabit mode until I removed a device that was connected via 10/100 to my router. Got a small speed boost after that as well.

Comparing to Drobo, which is better?

Any owner setup WOL and managed to get it works?

I just bought DS213 last week and installed DSM 4.2. I used DSM EZ Internet setup to detect my router(Linksys E3200), signup DDNS and configured port forward for cloud station and it works from my mobile DS cloud over internet (data mobile). From DDNS, I tested connection from DSM without any problem.

From control panel -> hardware > checked WOL (Wake on LAN 1).

After shutdown my NAS, the DSM assistant is able to wake up my NAS within LAN. Over the internet from mobile phone, I tried both "WOL-Manager" and "Wol Wake On Lan Wan" but it got nothing happen after magic packet sent.

Do I need to add port forward 9 under DSM > DDNS/ router? Is there anything to do setup at router admin to get WOL works?

Any expert advise is appreciate!!! Thanks!

I have a feeling your router firewall is blocking the port. Probably got to forward a port.

Thanks. I am running a static IP so I thought DDNS is unnecessary. Correct me if I am wrong.

Will go try it out again once I set up n bridge my fiber modem.
