    Folks should be aware that an iSCSI target is not shareable to a second client PC initiator, in the sense that most ordinary users would expect. Indeed, getting a second PC to access the same target is an advanced topic involving clustering.

    I have to admit that I've selected many of your videos to get a better understanding of my synology DS918+ and what it's capabilities are. Although I feel that sometimes you're talking a bit too fast to follow along, I can always replay certain portions on the video which I couldn't fully understand. Now, you've made videos covering both Synology and QNAP NAS's; so it would be more helpful if you could also include the differences between Windows and MAC OS when doing a how to video of this type.
    I can't follow you when you're selecting certain functions on your Windows PC which Mac doesn't have.

    Excellent explained. One question though. Is it necessary to set a fixed ID address on the synology, or possible to just write the network path?

  • @chromerims
    @chromerims 11 месяцев назад

    Great video 👍
    9:15 -- GPT vs. MBR . . . GPT is the right recommendation. The reason being is that GuidPT has more functionality and flexibility with drive partitioning schemes. As the (msft windows) world has largely moved on from MBR, only older vintage CPU, ROM and O/S combos are incompatible with GPT. But even today one may select MBR to initialise a drive, whether for storage or boot with a resultant 2TB maximum capacity.
    Kindest regards, neighbours and friends.

    • @sgateman1
      @sgateman1 9 месяцев назад +1

      Agreed. GPT (GUID Partition Table) is by far a better partitioning scheme. It is actually really brilliant and has a multitude of benefits that MBR does not allow, such as more than 4 primary partitions (if i recall up to 128 and no need for extended partitions), a backup partition table at the end of the disk to protect against failure, and more partitioning options. MBR can still be used on any drive (limited to 2TB usage), but there's no reason unless you require backwards compatibility.

    how do we view these new ISCSI drives on the actual NAS in say Synology File Station?

  • @carltaylor1497
    @carltaylor1497 2 года назад

    Thank you. This was a great video that helped to clear up many of the mysteries of LUN / ISCSI for me. Did have a couple of questions though. 1. Is there an easy way for me to make these visible in a non PC situation. Such as for instance from my Nvidia Shield unit? 2. If I added 3 LUN's. Would it be possible to use them to create a RAID 5 or similar array? Thanks again for the great informative video. I think this is going to help several of my clients for accounting programs like Quickbooks / Sage 50 etc... where the program insists on the data being installed on a local PC etc... for sharing to other PC's on the network.

  • @rippedgeek
    @rippedgeek 2 года назад +1

    @NASCompares - is there a way to explore or browse the ISCSI target on the Synology itself? I've got a DS1621+ and can copy and move files from Windows to the ISCSI target, no problem, but I want to do some testing internal to the NAS and can't find any info on that whatsoever... I assume you must be able to, but am very new to ISCSI, so may be completely wrong. Thanks for the great videos!

    I'm trying to do this with a PC that is in a physically different location. Is that even possible? I've created a LUN and accompanying iSCSI within DSM but keep getting 'Connection Failed' in the Windows initiator. I've tried using both my Synology's external IP address and DDNS link.
    Thanks for a helpful video, and in advance for any support here.

    • @baskling7626

      You need to setup a VLAN to "convince" your NAS you're in the same local network. After that, It'll work

    When adding a drive to the remote desktop, is there a way to allow for certain users to only be allowed to Read the files only off of the drive?
    Is that going to be set up from the beginning of what the user is able to do??

    it's not a coincidence I was just trying to understand this last week,
    is there some easy answer to, if I should use NFS or iSCSI, accessed from MacOS ?
    I ruled out SMB because of slow performance over LAN, testing NFS with very good results nowadays (only inconvenience being lack of recycle bin)

    • @chrisbearden1331
      @chrisbearden1331 Год назад

      I wondered the same thing. Did you ever find a solution for this? I was surprised to see that synology's implementation of iscsi forces you to define the size of the iscsi storage in the beginning, which seems like a deal-breaker to me. The iscsi setups I've worked with in the past from other vendors used the entire volume available at the time, and didn't require you to have a separate "hard" coded space for this.
