Re: [Discuss] Mothballing Synology NAS

Finished the migration this morning. Some of my thoughts about the process. Debian 9. While I don't like the direction Debian has gone with the last few releases it remains the distribution I can most quickly stand up and configure. The system drive still has plenty of room for some other distro

Re: [Discuss] Mothballing Synology NAS

Actually, QNAP is probably one of the worst storage system vendors. They offer little or no support. They sat on a silent corruption bug until they were out-ed by a blogger who went public after the company's refusal to acknowledge the bug: http://www.sbsfaq.com/?p=4277 I have personally had to

At least QNAP offer to one-click secure your installation with a Let's Encrypt cert through their SSL management plugin - even though they sell certs through the the same plugin/admin interface. (ed. note: TLS/SSL does not prevent Spectre / Meltdown - it's just an indication that QNAP are not
