    Any Synology users here updated their DSM to 4.0 yet?

    Silverfox you still run your synology - you done it on yours?

    I'm thinking about it but mines set up running sickbeard/sabnzb/couchpotato and is running fine using dsm 3.2.

    Checking if anyone has upgraded to 4.0 and if had any problems.

    I've updated mines too now. Seems ok. Gui seems ace.

    File transfers seem lot more quicker too.

    Sab downloading speed seems to have dropped a little...

    Like the cloud station feature. But im a mac user so guess will have to wait until they write an up.

    Firstly thanks to all contributors to the thread, some great reading.

    I got myself a popcorn hour c200 a few months back. To be honest I am a bit disappointed but that is probably due to me expecting the machine to do more than it does. I find that the software is a bit hit n miss on it. I have got it setup ok managed to get SabNzb up and running, but it just decides some days its not gonna work and other days it does lol. So I think I am gonna get a Nas drive and go on from there. i think I will just keep the popcorn and have it connected to the Nas.

    My mate has a 4 bay buffalo link station and it seems to work well. He says it requiress modified firmware to use sab etc so I have been looking at the synology range. They seem to do pretty much everything I need. i was looking at the Synology DiskStation DS212j and was wondering if this would be a good choice. Or is there anything else out there i shoud consider.

    Also in these times of spiralling costs Argos are doing 1TB usb extenal drive for £46. item number 683/3329

    Thanks

    Off topic I know, but try NZBGet much faster and found it 100% reliable

    Hi,
    I have the old Synology 410j and it works perfect. I can only recommend Synology. Before my Syno I bought a Buffalo and I was not impressed by their firmware. The buffalo only had one advantage I could install a complete Debian Linux.

    ciao

    I have the Synology DS411 and I rate it highly compared to my old Netgear ReadyNAS. Not slagging the readynas, it was a robust bit of kit.

    Looking at your preference you only have the two bay. Would you consider having a 4 bay? Advantage is having more room for storage expansion.

    The new Netgear ReadyNAS V2 products are decent. I prefer Synology as I like the user friendly interface and more snappier in performance. Plus the addons for using sab/sickbeard/couchpotatoe are all free.
