Below is ALL Parts of this Synology Guide series for 2021-2022. If you click a link and it takes you to a video that is 'unavailable', this is because this series is being gradually published (I can only really ut 1 video out a day on the RUclips channel without being a huge spammer!). So, if a video is unavailable to view, come back in a few days and it might well be published.

You should charge Synology for these videos! So so helpful for their customers!
You are a natural born teacher!
Just getting ready to replace a Drobo FS with a Synology DS1522+. I had lots of questions regarding initial set up and configuration, and your video covered exactly what I needed to get rolling. Thank you very much for the effort you put into creating this tutorial and walkthrough.
After watching your videos for the past year I finally pulled the plug and bought a DS920+ based on your recommendations!
You helped me so much to walk through setting up a new DS220+ with DSM 7. Now, I'm searching for the next step to help setup applications. Thanks!
Thanks so much! I had tried another RUclipsrs set up guide and it was an absolute failure. This was easy to follow and accurate, it gave me exactly what I needed, well done!
"This is truly a great set-up video". I have just set up my DS920+ step by step and it is spot on. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! Even today 27Dec 2021 this info is up to date. Thank you
I have just bought a Synology NAS system and this is going to be very useful in getting me familiarized with how it woks. There is so much to learn here and it was well presented. I look forward to more of these videos. Thanks!
Given 4 drives present, I would use SHR2 or raid 6 over SHR or raid 5 and leaving the 4th drive idle as a hot spare… Using the hot spare and 1 drive redundancy leaves you open to data loss if failure occurs before the spare comes live. It can take a long time to rebuild an array. Having a second drive failure protection in place with SHR2 is a huge comfort and reduces the pucker factor while waiting for an array to rebuild. When your drives are a few years old, you will lose one and be hoping that the remaining old drives don’t crap out during the rebuild!
Thank you for all of the information you've provided on your channel regarding all things NAS. It's been invaluable in pointing me towards the correct NAS to use. P.S. I love the seagull sounds in the background, they are very pleasant to hear in your videos.
you need a timeline for this video. Thank you!
Thanks for watching - Part 2 of the Synology Setup Guide Series is now Live - ruclips.net/video/-KIkwxJxL4w/видео.html
Hes right a timeline would be very useful if you know how to do that
I have one regret while watching this video, that I have but one thumbs up 👍🏼 to give. Great video, thanks!
I just wanted to say a massive THANK YOU for all your information and help with everything NAS. I'm currently setting up my first, and any queries I had, after a quick search I found the answers on your website. Fantastic! 👌
Just bought a NAS and was looking for exactly this type of guide. Brilliant timing. Very informative and easy to follow.
Great video! Please make part two 🙌🏻

Thanks for taking the time to record this. While I'm familiar with RAID, etc., (setting up a Synology 1522+, to replace my old Drobo 5N), you answered my biggest question really quick: "Do I need the drive screws?". I am thinking, since I'm in an RV, that I might should use them anyway, because vibration....but we'll see. I have the NAS, but the drives are coming slower. :( And I'll be using RAID6 with 5x8TB Seagate Ironwolf. RAID6, because, again, in an RV!
Thank you for a very helpful and detailed video. My DS920+ is arriving tomorrow, so I feel more confident now on how to set it up - correctly. :)
Great video for me as a NAS beginner! Thank you Alan.
Thanks a lot. I have considered a NAS recently and needed more info on Synology
Thank you very much for this! I followed along while setting up a DS1821+. Very much appreciate your generosity in providing this tutorial.
Thanks for all of the information an analysis. It is great. I just pulled the trigger on a DS920+ (largely based on your in-depth evaluations and knowledge). I missed the Black Friday sales because I was too slow doing my reasearch, but I still think it will be a great value. Thank you!
Great video, mamy thanks!!! I'm going to buy a NAS and your videos are very helpful.
This is great, thanks! I've had a DS412+ for many years, but have never delved into DSM too deeply. This is a great refresher as I begin to set up my new DS1520+. I may have questions 😄
@NASCompares Great video! Thanks for all the super helpful info you put out! I'm looking for the 2nd part to this video but can't find it.

You can also remap your essential folders such as my documents and my music by clicking on the icon and select properties. Use the tab for location and in the data string, move your on system files to the NAS Drive. Just remember to recreate the disk structure/path naming formalities, if you care about such things. For instance I use \\[Synology drive name]\path\folder\My Documents.
Because I have several computers that I use, I find it easier for me to have my folders on my Nas, than to have individual folders on each pc
For me, this works. It means that I can access all my files even on my laptop, in another country.
Downside is that if I lost my laptop, they can access my stuff too but that is another issue
Thanks man, I’m buying this NAS and I’m beginner. Perfect video for me. Cheers!
I hope Synology is sponsoring you for creating this resource!
Brilliantly helpful. Thanks for taking the time.
Awesome, easy to follow guide with everything I needed to know. Noise from your NAS was no problem, but you might want to have a word with the seagulls near you-more than whirrs and clicks coming from them!
Thank you, clear explanations as well as addressing questions such as "same size drives" and the such, extremely helpful thank you!!!.
Awesome Introduction, thank you!!
Excellent video !! Thanks
so much. Kind regards, Frank
thanks - great introduction to setting up your NAS
Great tutorial vidéo. More like a full professional training session. I've had worst payed training sessions irl lol. You guys should get paid by Synology as their expert traîners! 👍
Dude you're a legend, thank you
Genuinely, thank you for your kind words mate! Having a crap morning and that really perked me up! Cheers!
Very helpful. Thanks
I did it differently and added two drives for 12TB of storage, as separate individual volumes. Backup is to external USB 5TB drives using DiskBoss Ultimate, which mirrors the NAS drives to the USB ones and error checks them. The USB drives to cover the 12TB worked out half the price too.
If your separate disk that has your individual volume then you will lose your data for sure. Use a separate shared folder instead and add that drive to your current storage pool
@@sylvainalain6637 I think what you are trying to say, is have a disk with the operating system and nothing else. The other drives are then individual volumes containing shared directories?
@@EgoShredder i mean, I have a big storage pool with all my disk and when I want to have a specific task , I create a shared folder. I only did a single volume. I don’t see the value yet to create multiple volumes. I prefer creating multiple shared folder inside one big volume instead.
@@sylvainalain6637 Gotcha.
Hey - Thanks for your videos that are super clear - A question though 37:15 : What's the advantage of creating a hot spare compared to have 4 disks under a Raid 5 ?
Is this possible to make the HDD of the NAS active only when you need them ? (Like when you use a Black HDD from WD) To extend the lifetime of the HDD of the NAS ? A sort of sleep state.
Very good video!! A have a question..just got the same NAS as yours, and 2x brand new 6 tb ( for NAS) from MDD Max Digital Data,
That says format before using... I'm going to use it on Mac ( Catalina) I watched your video and did not see you mentioning anything about formatting... so should I format it before using Disk Utility or just do the process you did with your... Thank you so much!!!
Thank you so much for this video, very informative.
Hi, I really appreciated the pace. I'm hoping you can post a video to expand on drive mappings. It would be helpful to address the issues one can come across when the NAS is in a VLAN with specific ACLs, Although I'm in the same domain, I can't map a drive and I suspect it has to do with network security and the fact that I'm in a separate VLAN. I also "loaned" out two of my drive bays on the NAS to a hospital and they are not even in the same domain, but I want them to map a drive through Windows Explorer as well. Thank you!
Loved this video, you mentioned the "next" vids, are they out yet??
Thanks for watching - Part 2 of the Synology Setup Guide Series is now Live - ruclips.net/video/-KIkwxJxL4w/видео.html
I just got my DS1520+ so this is kinda on time. Still waiting on my HDD to arrive tomorrow. But the video is so timely for setup.
Great tutorials...your skills of teaching us are amazing. Thank you. Synology Assistant desktop Windows is not finding the DS720+. I managed to map the network drive but the Assistant is not working or showing anything under Management => Search. I am connected on the same network.
Awesome video :) Can you do a dedicated video about the hot spare and the automatic rebuilt that dsm 7.0 add ? The faster rebuilt compare to dsm 6.2
No redundancy RAID level can replace a backup. If you don't follow that rule, you will loose data.
Thanks a lot for this video! Just installed my first NAS, a very helpfull video for beginners such as myself! Well explained, keep it up and I'm waiting for your next one! :)

Great content and very good presentation
I'm so confused with all this networking stuff right now and NAS lol. ( do video editing and render farms)
So Ive been told that a mechanical drive is too slow and would bottleneck on a 10gbs network. I mentioned isnt that what the RAM, CPU and SSD caching is for? To bring the speed up over 200-300 mb transfer? Supposedly a usb2.0 on SSD would be be fast enough, but based on my editing experience I would disagree as it always lagged and files are unscrubbable with a 4k 60fps footage. If a 10gbs is required for NAS video editing workflow, then doesnt that mean the data we're transfering should be equally or close to being that high as well? Is there more to it than the actual transfer speed that I am not understanding? How much data are we transfering or required to transfer when editing sometthing like a 4k60fps? Do you have a deep explanation for these?
This is the video we needed!!! Perfect
Amazing video. Thanks so much!!
Can you tell us how to setup the password manager bitwarden on a synology nas system? I tried to do this myself but I failed :(
Really helpful video
I ended up getting a WD my cloud 16 TB my reasoning is that I get a simple NAS and if I where to get 2 8tb hard dives it would cost about as much as the NAS while if I where to go with any other it would be x2 the price. good video at some point I may get a synology set up if this NAS idea works as well as I hope.
Very nice! Thank you!
Thank you for the walk through, I was looking to upgrade from a WD Cloud I bought in 2015 and landed on the Synology DS1520+ thanks to your very informative videos. I was wondering when the next video for the DSM 7 will drop? Excited to learn more about this platform, keep up the great work.
It's weird. This video came out 4 months ago and there are 11 videos that are "unavailable" in the playlist. I'm thinking those are set to private.
I also just bought 1520+ :) - I have previous NAS experience having built many in the past using FREE NAS and Open Media Vault. I maybe getting ahead of myself, but I want to figure out how to "link" the photos app to a share that will store my photos -
Thanks for watching - Part 2 of the Synology Setup Guide Series is now Live - ruclips.net/video/-KIkwxJxL4w/видео.html
Great Video, I followed it twice and after I created my shared folders and go to Synology Assistant to map my drives it come up with ERROR cannot obtain a list of shared folders? Please help!!!
Amazing! Thanks!
excuse me, a question, if you have 2 different NAS, can you connect to both of it on a laptop via network drive ?
Thank you very much for your useful video. I have a problem and I hope you could give me instructions and advice.
I have Synology Drive on my computer, which uses a 480GB SSD. There is a SynologyDrive in the Local disk D. The data I store in the SynologyDrive is synced to my DS220J Synology NAS. Unfortunately, the total capacity of Local disk D is just 175GB, which is quite limited compared to the amount of data I need to store in my NAS. I do "free up space" some folders in the SynologyDrive on my computer but I still don't have enough memory for my data.
What should I do to upload 1TB of my data to my NAS without facing the limited amount of memory (175GB) of the SynologyDrive on my local disk D?
Thank you very much for your help.
Hi, thank You for the broad and well paced and explained how to setup NAS. I have a question though. Is it possible to plug in - besides the two drives that are set up as raid 0 already (920+) - to fill the other two drive slots in NAS with full of data hard drives and use the other ones as "external hard drive" ??
Yes. You can determine what each drive is, be it stand alone, mirrored, mirrored plus hot standby, or use all as striped.
Thank you,you are the best.
I am thanking of getting this DiskStation DS1520+ for plex and am tryin to figure out how many streams it can do and what is best raid for expandability of the raid ans nsa in the future. Here is a vid idea do a vid on haw to expand a nas and the raid
Thank you for this video. Love your content!
I have a question - How do you backup files from external hard drives onto the NAS automatically on a schedule? I work on a mac and do audio production work. I want to back up my files on my DS218+. Is there a seem-less way to get my files backed up at the end of the day onto the NAS without me actually dragging and dropping files on to a local shared folder?
Why are "11 unavailable videos are hidden" in the playlist for this setup guide???
Thanks for watching. This series is going to be published throughout the next 4 weeks. - Part 2 of the Synology Setup Guide Series is now Live - ruclips.net/video/-KIkwxJxL4w/видео.html
Thank you.
great stuff as always
Great video!
Just bought a 5 bay nas and 2 drives, I will add to it as time goes on. Do my drives need to be in the “1 and 2” slot, or can I place them anywhere? My thinking is that placing them further away from each other will mean less heat
You can install them in any bay you like. Good idea on your part tbh
@@nascompares cheers mate, btw thanks for all the nas content you put out. It really helped in the whole process of deciding if I need one, what specs I might need, what brands and models to look for etc etc
@@TheCuzzieKage welcome to the group. as a relatively new user myself, i have "found" that for most nas usage "red" or white lable nas drives are perfect for use in the ds1517+ AND the 1621+
Thank you Mate...
If your NAS box is "hot swappable" does that mean you can just randomly pull out any drive, put in a blank one, and the NAS will rebuild that drive?
Usually user needs to click a 'rebuild raid' button.
On my synology 218 + bay 1 is the one on the left is bay one on the 920+ all the way to the right ?
When someone should use multiple volumes inside a storage pool ? I don’t understand since you can apply quota to shared folder.
Thanks for this video
Nice video. Question i have the ds218+ dsm 7 is not showing in my updates/downloads as yet, should i wait until it is offered to me before i update? 2nd Q, will my current backup be compatible or do i need to do a fresh install of all data
Q1: You need to download and install manually dsm 7.0 as of right now , it’s not available as an update yet. Q2 : no need to do a fresh install and your backup are safe too.
I just got a second hand DS212j with one drive. Does this info apply to one so old?
Question. If you use 2 discs and disc 1 fails, do you have to power down the device put disc 2 into slot 1 then fit the new disc in slot 2
Unfortunately this is supposed to be for beginners how to setup a Synology DSM 7 now but your missing important features if you don't have checksum enabled on the share you can't enabled it afterwards (it disables auto repair) also for beginners SHR should be used due to its flexibility (you can't change between SHR and raid5) disks at 8tb or higher recommended to use SHR2 and a 5 or higher Bay nas (so you still have 3 disks worth of space)
Recycle bin enabled
Snapshot Replication should be (amazes me you have to actually install it) and set it up 30 days retention (or more if needed) and set monthly smart extended scan and monthly data scrub schedules set
If you're thinking about using a hot spare with SHR or Raid 5 don't, you should pick shr-2 first or RAID6 before you even consider using hotspare (as your constantly protected protected from 1 or 2 disk failure, with SHR1 once you lose a disk you lose redundancy the hot spare doesn't protect you until it has finished rebuilding, or you might actually automate your pool death when)
AVOID 2 step verification at all cost ..... it does NOT work and is very difficult to reset
What happens if you start up the initial boot with the RAM and NVMe cache expansion already installed?
Hi, thanks for your recent help via email. I'm up and running now and enjoyed the help in this video. However, when I was looking for the other parts, the playlist says '11 unavailable videos are hidden' as far as I can see. Is that what you intended?

Hi! Amazing tutorial, followed all the steps. However, at the Map Network Drive step, Enter network credentials, after I enter them, it gives me User or password incorrect...which they aren't.. can anyone help?
Edit: I solved it by mapping from Windows, if anyone encounters the same issue (I use Win10)
Hoping to get a simple answer, without someone asking "why do you want to do this", I have my reasons. Would a 10GB NAS with single volume drives (not raided) be faster the 1GB NAS with single volume drive (not raided). Current NAS is Western Digital 4 Bay PR4100 with WD Red Drives Set up Jbod (4 Volumes). Thinking about getting Synology or QNAP 10GB not sure which one yet with Iron Wolf Pro drives, but do not want to RAID, want single Volumes like I currently have. I know this is not normal, but does anyone know if the 10GB NAS will be significantly faster in this situation? Many thanks in advance.
Where is part 2? Thanks for all.

I had problem about my synology nas
And Steve Baker
Technical Support Engineer write me about my problem that
We are sorry to hear that your DS218 has to be reset. This is likely caused by an issue in the DSM operating-system.
We understand that you are worried about losing your data. Please rest assured, your data should not be affected by the reset as the OS and data are stored in separate partitions on the drives. When re-installing the OS, the system should normally not touch the data-partitions of your drives.
I beleived and i did what he said now all my data erased omg i shocked after sir Steve Baker dissepeared i am alone there is nothing in my hands
Synology is regret bad nas choose qnap there isnt good support for problemss !!!
There is no good service and support becarefullll!!!
In your playlist Synology NAS DSM 7 Setup Guide you have 12 videos but just this one is not hidden. The other ones are marked as private and cannot be seen.
Yeah, sorry about that. They had to all be refilmed and reproduced. They will all start going live again from Dec 1st. Apologies for the delay buddy
@@nascompares No problem. I just bought a new DS3622XS+ and I need those videos to configure it. Please, can you do a video how to configure DDNS with a custom provider (not Synology) as my ISP provide the option for a DDNS but I don't know how to configure it in NAS (the query string) and the person that is answering the phone at the "technical department" of my ISP has no idea. Tnx

I get an error when trying to map the drive at the end of this video..it says the drive can't be found and I have to disconnect it again
Hi. I have a questions, what's Best for 420+ 2 redundancy disk or a single redundancy disk with a hot spare?
With Dsm 7.0 it’s the hot spare with the quick/clone feature that doesn’t need to stress your raid. I’m sure that he will do a video on that DSM 7.0 feature. On a side note , using shr2 or raid 6 or even what you are doing on a 4 bays is overkill. Doing that should be at least on a 1621+ 6 bays. Raid is not a backup
my nas never arived with dsm installed not first time not the second time.
NICE
Is there a Part II available yet?
Thanks for watching - Part 2 of the Synology Setup Guide Series is now Live - ruclips.net/video/-KIkwxJxL4w/видео.html
Can drives1 and 2 be set to Raid 1 and drives 3 and 4 be set to Raid 1?
Great video. Can you please do asimilar video for Qnap. Thanks
100%. I originally planned to do exactly that parallel with this .. then QNAP dropped the QTS 5 Beta and now I am holding off till it officially launches, otherwise it might be useless for people in the future
@@nascompares ok great, have aTS-673A-8G on the way and was viewing your review and some other videos. clCan confirm if only the m.2 drives can be used for caching and not a 2.5 ironwork in one of the bays and if to go either the standard file system of ZFS. Thanks
Why did you choose RAID5 over SHR?
RAID 5 has higher performance. But limits future expansion to larger drives. Because only SHR let's you replace 1 drive with a larger one, rebuild, then replace the next drive with a larger one, rebuild, and so on until all have been replaced for larger size. With RAID 5 to expand you'd have to backup elsewhere and then replace all drives and then set new larger RAID 5.
This is nice, when is part 2 comming ??
Sorry for the delay on this series mate. Seen sideswiped by new SSDs and PS5 updates for the audience. These will be continued very soon. Apologies for being a bit of a Larry let down on this...
@@nascompares Thanks for the quick response.
I get that you're busy with the new SSDs.
What I would like to see/learn in part 2 is:
# what the user folder structure looks like.
# must each user put photos, etc., in special folders.
# can I also let an acquaintance down the street watch my videos?
# How do I watch videos on my TV, does this have to be via phone/tablet/ect. ?
# can I play audio on my sonos speaker ?
# if you have more nice points / tips, please..

Hi Leonardo. Nope, haven't forgotten and the 8 other pieces are done and in the schedule..it's just been a crazy few months here on the channel and an 18 month window of releases gave been compresses to about 4 (pandemic etc) by brands. The new product stuff always has to be published first, as it helps people decide whether they should buy something or ignore it. I promise, the rest of this series will start to drop within the week
@@nascompares Thank you very much. Please (some suggestions) include the following subjects as those are somehow not so clear in the articles you find on internet:
- cache - read only or read-write;
- VPN connection from outside the LAN - including how to use a custom DDNS (as an example, my ISP offer DDNS, but not a query/interrogation string/parameters that need to be written when setting the DDNS), using the Let's Encrypt certificates and their auto renew, custom port forwarding (as an example, using port 443/or 80 and how to use the NAS services on remote VPN connection by opening just port 443/or 80 in router) etc.
- firewall configuration - best rules;
- maybe wireguard???
- etc.

Read and write is not improved in RAID 1. It's too bad you keep saying this in so many of your video's. Explenation: a 1GB file needs to be written to a RAID 1 setup. The 1GB of data will be written to both drives at the same time, turning it from a 1GB data transfer to a 2GB transfer on that final stretch of the pipeline. The data is there 2 times now. The read and write performance is therefore theoretically limited to the slowest disk speed of the two.
Correction: RAID 2 does not offer 2 disk failure protection. RAID 2 only offers 1 disk failure. It's purpose is Hamming code protection for data integrity at the block level. Not very common. Special use case when you need bit rot protection.
Did I say that?? This video is a little old and I'm sure I didn't say that. If I did...WOW... Will check later.
Yep @31:42. No worries, happens to all of us with so much information crammed into our heads. We aren't infallible. Great job on the video and this is just a minor point that probably affected nobody. If anyone is going to think about selecting RAID 2 then they should do their homework and not just go on by what they heard 1 time.
Part 2 is being published when?
