Thank you for this video, I just bought one of these and will be setting it up tomorrow - you have made it look straight forward.

Just ordered one. And will be ordering 2 HDD's in a few days. My old solution is REALLY crappy. So cant wait to get it set up.

[mrtrachpanda]

i saw your ring and it looks self made and it looks verry nice

I am setting this up as a 2x4TB JBOD (8TB) but when I go to storage pool the 'Create" button is grayed out, maybe I should start all over again but I am new to NAS and know nothing about it.

Is it possible to enter only 1 hard drive initially and upgrade to RAID1 in the future with another drive?

[patgar]

Hi Teacher, what you can do with the 2 USB3 at the back ???? External Memory ??? As an external HDD to increase the Memory ??? Thanks. Cheers from Australia

Hi, thanks for this video. I am a Mac user deciding whether to get one of these. Never have done it before. Also, zero familiarity with it, but you made it look easy. Is the process different on a Mac?

If your computer crashes.
How do you put a new hdd into the old computer and then load the backup from the NAS Server

I bought 2 × 2tb WD Red from Ebay but they were from different sellers. Turns out one was Red Plus and they have different size caches. Will it matter?

I already have 2 drives that I have media and files on. Can I set up the NAS without wiping it and just using the drives as is?

[barnabus]

Good info. But as with many youtube instruction videos, the actual “full size” display size of what is being shown, to say nothing of the text, is tiny. Why?

[fpe]

is it wifi connectable with other PC's on your local router pleas?

[franekorlowski]

You have exactly the same screen background as me and I was so confused when it switched to your desktop

[willhunter]

Hi can you please do a video on how to configure the VPN package. If I was on holiday and wanted to connect the the NAS, but only through File Explorer as a mapped drive, I would need a VPN. Can you please show us this?

[johnh]

does the ds220j default to raid 1 on setup?

[rokibuca]

I was planning to use this for a plex server for 3 people to use at the same time wud you recommended this or shud I get something more powerful?

[BilalInamdar]

Is "Active Backup" product such as pc backup, o365, gsuite backup available with 220j (In Package manager)? Also is docker available ?

[cubemerula]

Is it possible to permanently turn off the lights? Why do they even put those useless lights on everything? They indicate nothing at all. The blinking tells me nothing. They could put in lights that turn on only when warning about something particular.
