Fixed the issue where shared folders could not be accessed via the SMB protocol if the smb.conf file was manually modified for Final Cut Pro X. Other than the 2020 model, I've tested all DS15xx servers, starting with the DS1511+, and in my experience, this lineup is the most well-balanced. You can now convert legacy Advanced LUNs into new Advanced LUNs, which come with instant snapshots and performance improvements. The DS1515 supports Synology High Availability, providing redundancy in the event of unexpected network failure and ensuring a smooth transition between clustered servers for the highest reliability and resiliency. The SSD read/write cache support further allows SMBs to see a considerable boost in throughput while minimizing the cost per gigabyte. Designed to grow with SMBs, the DS1515 can scale up to 15 drives when paired with two DX513 expansion units. Fixed an issue where encrypted Excel files cannot be opened in Microsoft Office 2016 simultaneously on multiple macOS devices.

Anyway, I’m happy to report that the thing boots just fine now. I’m hoping this fix will keep it going for another 5+ years like it did before it died. In my experience, AMD Ryzen is much more powerful for daily computing than Intel Atom or Celeron CPUs, which were widely used in previous models. The new AMD CPUs elevate these home and SMB servers' capability, making them more comparable to Synology's enterprise models running Intel Xeon chips. Added the capability to join existing Azure AD as an SSO client. Utilizing the single sign-on feature, daily productivity is increased by saving time spent on re-authentication.

Our first benchmark of the Synology DiskStation DS1515+ is our Microsoft SQL Server OLTP Benchmark that simulates application workloads similar to those the Synology DS1515+ are designed to serve in a production setting. For this particular benchmark, we show the results captured on the DS1815+, which has the same hardware configuration as the DS1515+, minus three drive bays. Since the iSCSI LUN used in this test leverages two SSDS in RAID1, this configuration would show identical results across both platforms.

Since 2021, almost all new home and small business NAS servers from Synology have used AMD chips. This trend is likely to continue. DSM 7.1 out of the box Fixed an issue where the out-of-band port couldn't function properly when users configured Link Aggregation with only the ports on the external network card. Surveillance Station must be updated to version 9.0.1- 7673 or above to be compatible with this update. Brand new user interface is introduced to display more details of both active server and passive server, giving you an in-depth system utilization overview.

Fixed Issues

Fixed an issue where Windows 10, version 2004 virtual machines might fail to power on when users select UEFI as the firmware. At the same time, I have read that people are experimenting with adding a 4GB memory module to the DS1511+ storage device, and they say that their unit is recognizing it.

I noticed that my board (same info on board as the one in your picture) does not have the resistor that you mention in the article. Would it be advisable to add it? Provided an option to change stripe cache size when the RAID type of Storage pool is RAID 5, RAID 6, RAID F1, or SHR (three disks or above). As mentioned, the eSATA ports can be used to connect the DS1515 to one or two DX513 expansion enclosures, adding up to 10 more bays to the base configuration. The four Gigabit LAN ports are used to achieve the claimed 403.77MB/s read and 421.85MB/s write performance. Fixed an issue where iSCSI Manager might not open for the incompatible format of iSCSI LUN configuration files set up before DSM 5.2.The DS1513+ loaded with Seagate NAS drives was the fastest system in both SMB and iSCSI in terms of max latency of both read and write functions. The DS15+ loaded with Reds (SMB) performed well in terms of read functions (3,439.1ms), but relatively poorly in terms of write functions (12,678ms). The iSCSI DS1515+ systems had similar results in both read and write. Our average latency in our 5k VU test shows 13ms for the DS1815+ and 14ms for the DS1813+. So a small drop in latency comparing both units. Fixed the issue where domain-related services might not resume working because the update of domain data could not be complete. Improved fan speed control based on the Synology network interface card temperature for 19-series and newer models.

I do not have problems starting up. Should I replace the transistor, even though I’m not having issues? I’m usually into preventative maintenance, but that seems like overkill (at the moment, anyway).Fixed an issue where users couldn't expand the LUNs on ext4 volumes that are already mapped to iSCSI Targets. Added support for custom OIDC (OpenID Connect) settings to integrate DSM with external SSO servers. For example, when setting it up with a few large hard drives, you'll note that the server takes a long time to finish "optimizing" the RAID. Fixed an issue where enabling the "Collect debug logs" option for SMB might result in excessive system space usage.
