So I picked up a Synology DS214 NAS, and I absolutely love it. I opened up ports 22 for shell access, modified the standard HTTP/S ports, have a certificate setup on it, disabled the admin account, and have a 12 character alphanumeric password generated by LastPass as my (admin) account. I'm getting hit by SSH attacks every few hours - is that common? I have it autoblocking IPs for 5 incorrect attempts w/in 10 minutes, should I decrease that time limit? Any other security measures I should enable so I can access this bad boy from outside my LAN? Thanks, dudes!

I wish CrashPlan worked better on my Synology DS214. Bogs down the CPU too much, so I have to use Amazon Glacier. Oh well, it's only a couple of bucks per month. It works great on my other systems though!

Does anyone run Crashplan on a Synology DS214? Everything I've read says that it'll really bog it down as it's resource heavy, but I trust goons over some lovely blogger. I'm currently using Glacier as an offsite backup, but it's so loving slow to upload.

Is 80% RAM usage on a Synology DS214 overtaxing it? Is that OK? I'm trying to run Crashplan on my device, but it (java) has been using a ton of resources lately, causing it to hang/slow down tremendously. Any tips?

I'm currently running Crashplan on a Synology DS214, and I'm using up 90%+ of RAM constantly. Would upgrading to a DS415+ (2GB RAM, more HD bays) help?

DSM 6 breaks CrashPlan pretty badly. Makes me want to get rid of this loving DS214 and get a FreeNAS box.

So my Synology DS-214 is starting to age a bit, and I'm looking to expand past its storage capabilities. Is there a FreeNAS for Dummies somewhere that I can use as a guide for speccing out a new system?

DrDork posted:As a general PSA for everyone using FreeNAS and the Crashplan plugin, who have noticed over the last few weeks that the forced update to 4.8 totally fucks with your ability to manage it remotely / run it headless, this wonderful guy went through all the obnoxiousness of figuring every last loving step out (including updating java and everything) and posted a very nice guide that you can virtually copy/paste right into the CLI and make work. Only error is you have to run the crashplan service at least once in order to generate the .ui_info file before there'll be anything in it to copy, but other than that it's 100% solid. Man, poo poo like this is why I'm happy I moved Crashplan off Synology and onto a VM somewhere else. Crashplan just doesn't want to make a NAS-friendly product.

I'm currently running an old Synology DS214 from a few years back, and am looking to upgrade. I'm running 2x 4TB WD Reds from 2017, and running out of space using Synology's SHR raid thing. Would it make sense if I wanted to upgrade to the DS918+, if I was looking to upgrade the storage, and maybe have the option of streaming Plex through it? I currently have a standalone system that does nothing except run a Crashplan VM and serve out Plex to my clients, so I'm hoping the 918+ would be able to do this too.
