@lealternative qualcuno lo sta provando? Funziona con NAS come (ad esempio un #synology )?
So, I want to add an S3-compatible storage service local to my home lab (currently I'm using Backblaze). Basically I want it to run as a Docker service on my Synology NAS. It needs to run in the Synology because I want it to be external to my servers. I'm undecided between Garage or SeaweedFS.
Not MinIO. No, not Ceph. Not a VM. Not a Pi. Not in Kubernetes.
Anyone have/had that very particular setup and can share their experiences? Thanks in advance.

Happy third Sunday in Advent! 🕯️
For the last... 5 years (or so), I tried multiple different personal photo and video management services and have now landed at Immich.

I think it's really the best alternative I could find.

Well that was disappointing.
I was getting excited to try and fix the problem of my #Synology #DS216 NAS crashing when trying to use rsync, by using the great guide here: https://blog.fedorov.com.au/, to see if I could replace the memory with a bigger DIMM.....
Got it all apart, then it turns out "v1.0" of the motherboard doesn't have a DIMM slot - all the RAM must be soldered on 😭
His guide shows "v1.1" on the motherboard, and the model is a "DS216+" instead.
@bortzmeyer salut, Je découvre ton article sur #geminiprotocol j'adore le coté bien minimaliste.
Je me demandais si il est possible d'installer le serveur (agate) ou un autre sur un #synology ? Je précise que je bidouille sur #linux depuis longtemps, mais je suis une "quiche" en reseau/server, port forward...
Si tu as des conseils, par avance, merci
All I can do at this point is read my new email and shitpost and I'm all out of new email.

Oh, look, updates for #Synology #NAS packages depend on #Cloudflare.

Been thinking about setting up #Tailscale for accessing my #Synology off network. Just went to sign up, and you have to use a 3rd party SSO provider. I hate that. Why can't I just sign up with a bloody email address??

if you run Tailscale on a Synology NAS, read the bit about how you have to update it through a cron task. It won't automatically update otherwise and then you'll discover you are like 40 point releases behind in no time.

😅 Synology Reverses Policy Banning Third-Party HDDs After NAS sales plummet
｢ The policy, introduced earlier this year, made third-party HDDs from brands like Seagate and WD practically unusable in newer models such as the DS925+, DS1825+, and DS425+ ｣

Hello #AskFedi 👋
I'm looking to purchase my first #NAS. The internet is recommending a Synology DS225+ but I'm also reading that they force you to buy #Synology drives and I'm not sure the lock-in is a positive sign?
So what other brands should I be looking for? I basically want to run my #Jellyfin server on it so the whole family can stream audio and video to our #Android + #iOS devices and listen to some banging tunes on the #Sonos speaker at home.
Got a recommendation? Shoot! 💥🔫
Oh, yeah! #Plex got hacked!
They SAY passwords were hashed, but PLEASE #reset your plex #password and force a sign-out on ALL devices using their interface as follows:
When doing so, there's a checkbox to "Sign out connected devices after password change," which we recommend you enable.
Irritating...especially cos they don't say WHEN this happened!
@lisamelton @briankrebs WARNING WILL ROBINSON! If you follow their "Sign out connected devices after password change" instructions, you WILL have to #RECLAIM your #Plex server...which could be a handful. Here are the instructions:
PS: On Synology search the /volumes/Plex (or whatever you named it) for Preferences.xml - and continue with these instructions. I don't know why they don't include the #Synology instructions... they put out the Synology app!
@thibaultamartin I'm most probably much less skilled than you are, and I can already say that my first #selfhosted deployments on a #raspberrypi and a #VPS were already too much. Resilience and scalability are sooo underrated!
I just gave up on the VPS and the #pihole
I'm even considering to move away from my #synology#NAS and use a "clean" cloud service. Drive, photos backup, contacts/calendar/tasks (but my mail being on #mailfence, I could already have those 3 on my current subscription).
I would be grateful to hear your suggestions about that live, and about decent service that could help me.
Thanks for the great articles!
Verständnisfrage: Ich habe #paperless_ngx auf meiner #Synology NAS installiert.
Ich habe #Ollama und #AnythingLLM auf meinem Desktop-Rechner installiert (aus Leistungsgründen, weil die Synology halt nicht so viel Leistung hat wie ein Desktop-Rechner).
Nun möchte ich #paperless_ai installieren. Wie kann ich das auf dem Desktop tun und mit dem bestehenden Ollama verbinden, damit ich nicht Gefahr laufe, nochmals Ollama auf der Synology NAS zu installieren?

Just saw someone whose Google account was shuttered. They’d been… using Sheets to track movies they’d watched.
A question people should ask themselves, but rarely do: What would you do if, tomorrow, Google, Apple, Microsoft, Dropbox, and every other cloud provider you use closed your account without warning? Then maybe spend some of today safeguarding against that eventuality.
@craiggrannell I went with a #Synology#NAS. Has a "Dropbox" like functionality. And it also has a Google Suite like app that you can install. But, I mostly use @libreoffice for my those things.
My data. My rules.
Synology recently announced that some of its network-attached storage (NAS) require Synology-branded storage for full functionality. Now the company has begun selling a line of wildly overpriced SSDs. https://www.tomshardware.com/pc-components/ssds/synology-starts-selling-overpriced-1-6-tb-ssds-for-usd535-self-branded-archaic-pcie-3-0-ssds-the-only-option-to-meet-certified-criteria#Synology#Storage#SSD#NAS
