This is a place for all topics regarding Synology hard- and software - especially (but not limited to) their NAS devices.

Just one thing: Let’s please be pleasant to each other and respect that people have different experience levels. Some are pros, some are noobs, yet everybody may have good ideas or interesting questions to ask and comments to make, and all of these shall be heard and appreciated. ❤️


And since we know from TV that all IT nerds 🤓 are h4xx0rs and wear hoodies all the time (if not even ski masks) in front of their computers, I chose an appropriate banner image (image credit).

Just got delivery of the DS923+ so now figuring out the drives and other add-ons to order. I was curious if I could first put in an SSD like a Crucial MX500 and start up the NAS, and finish installation of DSM. And once that's done, add the rest of the drives (had 3x Seagate Ironwolf Pro 18TB in mind) as a separate volume. Would this work? (more importantly, would this help?) Would love any other suggestions for things I can add to the NAS.

Maybe I've misunderstood the initial question. I've put in a ssd, set up DSM, put all files on it and installed a second ssd for raid1 later.
