DS224+ Overview

    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

    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

    What kind of drive is it? There's a chance the alert could be legitimate.

  • Renewing DHCP Lease on DSM

    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

  • When setting up a DS923+, I added a reservation for IP address to my router. So I was wondering if there is a way to get DSM to pick up the new (and henceforth static) IP address quicker than waiting for the current one to expire (which would take about 22 more hours). On Windows/Mac there's an option to renew/refresh DHCP in network settings. Is there an equivalent thing I can do on the NAS? If not, I guess I can just wait around for it to get refreshed.

    Duckduckgo App Tracking and listing Sync's "tracking attempts"
  • tirestarter tirestarter Now 100%

    "Known to collect" is going to be vastly different from what's actually being collected. It's more realistically just serving ads, getting some crash/error reporting. But because it's all under Google, it's going to show up as Google. DDG/other blockers won't know the difference.

    I believe this is from enabling colorful mode inside Theme Management in Settings

    Edit: on second thought, that wasn't it

  • How often are yall shopping at Costco?
  • tirestarter tirestarter Now 100%

    Several times a month, haha. We live really close to a Costco (7-10 mins drive!) so we just pop over for only a couple things. The addiction is real.

  • DSM on a Single SSD?
  • tirestarter tirestarter Now 50%

    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 🤞

  • DSM on a Single SSD?
  • tirestarter tirestarter Now 100%

    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.

  • DSM on a Single SSD?
  • tirestarter tirestarter Now 100%

    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.

  • Just got delivery of the DS923+ so now figuring out the drives and other add-ons to order. I was curious if I could first put in an SSD like a Crucial MX500 and start up the NAS, and finish installation of DSM. And once that's done, add the rest of the drives (had 3x Seagate Ironwolf Pro 18TB in mind) as a separate volume. Would this work? (more importantly, would this help?) Would love any other suggestions for things I can add to the NAS.

    What is the state of rootless ad blockers for Android?
  • tirestarter tirestarter Now 100%

    Honestly not that much. It seems pretty lightweight. It has it's own measurement of battery usage (can't say how accurate it is but still better than nothing perhaps?) and on the tablet it has consumed around 9mAh, which I guess isn't too crazy.

  • What is the state of rootless ad blockers for Android?
  • tirestarter tirestarter Now 100%

    I've been using AdGuard on my phone (OnePlus 6T) and tablet (Tab S7 FE) for quite some time now. Neither device is rooted. I got AdGuard lifetime license on sale from StackSocial a while back. The app isn't on the Play Store (if you look for it, you will instead find an extension for the Samsung browser or something). They have you download the .apk from their site, and then you can set up the blocking how you prefer. It works by setting up a local VPN. I think there's other ways to use it but I didn't feel the need to tweak further. Because it acts like a VPN, all app traffic flows through it so ads are blocked pretty much system-wide. Browsers, social media apps etc. Honestly I'd highly recommend it.

    Not sure if the community has already talked about this. Just came across the article mentioning it. Might cost around the same as the DS220+ does now?
