Have you had your drive(s) for a while? Could be WDDA throwing up the warning. See this video if you haven’t already https://youtu.be/jx4i64uqsIA?si=BbV1GGCL6GRJ3VM8
or this article too https://nascompares.com/answer/understanding-wdda-warning-on-wd-drives-should-you-replace-your-nas-drives/#What_is_WDDA
What kind of drive is it? There’s a chance the alert could be legitimate.
This is incredibly useful! Looking forward to the release!
thanks for this! it worked. and come to think of it, i remember having to do something similar to refresh the ip on a raspberry pi a while back
this didn’t work for me unfortunately, it had ended up going back to the same ip it had
My hope is that if I initialize NAS with just the SSD first, it’d have the smallest drive number, so DSM would just start off that. And maybe get some more performance if other apps/containers also ran off the SSD.
was that Brave browser or search engine? never fully understood from the article
Thank you for this. That’s helpful to know that if the SSD fails, the NAS wouldn’t stop. More interested in trying this out now 🤞
surprised it hasn’t happened already
Oh I understand. I’m trying to do something different. I want to install just one SSD, do the initial set up so DSM (and any future apps) would live on it. Then in the other 3 bays I’d add the HDDs as a second volume. A potential downside to doing this would be that if the SSD fails, the NAS would fail entirely. But I don’t know enough about DSM to know if that’s the case.
That’s great to hear, thank you! Now I’m wondering if I should do 2 SSD and 2 HDD or 1 SSD and 3 HDD like I originally thought.
whoa bummed to hear that. Which box did you have in mind?
DS224+ will likely give you really good performance based on what you mentioned. Although the max RAM (6GB) could potentially be a concern if you run too many containers
