Thought you might be interested in the latest DSM which gives a speed boost across a fair range of disk stations

"Synology DiskStation now enters the next level in terms of performance. Data transfer rate on ARM-based DiskStation is significantly improved by a maximum of 18.8%"

Take a peek here

Synology ARM Performance Acceleration Technology makes file transfer faster for the following models:
•12-series: DS212, DS212+, DS212j, RS212, RS812
•11-series: RS411, DS411, DS411j, DS411slim, DS211+, DS211, DS211j, DS111
•10-series: DS410j, DS210j, DS110j
•9-series: RS409, DS409, DS209, DS109, DS409slim

Hopefully should breath a bit more life into my venerable DS210j! lol Sadly makes me want one of the new 212 models even more now!

If people are able to quantify any gains post them here!

I like that they continue to develop new software with regular updates etc and that on the whole they continue to support older models!

Yeah, they're good for that. I think that their hardware platforms tend to be quite similar to older models and as such there's probably not too much hassle to implement changes on older models.
 
On a seperate note, does anyone know why when I boot the computer the mapped shares have a red x but when I click on them they come straight on? I've disabled hibernation on the DS and mapped the shares through windows?

I get that too, dunno why really. Perhaps Windows doesn't wait around long enough for the DS to respond to pings (which shouldn't take very long really).

Never had that. Thanks for the heads up getting now and will do a speed test and report back.

Before the update using a 1.5gig file I got Nas to PC 45-55MB and PC to Nas 35-45MB
After the update using the same file I got Nas to Pc 64MB and Pc to Nas 49.4

So looks like a great update :)

Hmm, I'm tempted to install this but I remember all my Terminal tweaks got lost when I went from 3.1 to 3.2, does anyone know if I will lose my tweaks by installing this update?

How did you map the drives deuse? I used the 'map drive' function in windows. Is that the right way?

Can either use the Synology Assistant or map drive through windows both should work the assistant just makes life easier if you don't want to mess with knowing your diskstation IP etc.

As for the red X get that on my system running from a SSD think as stated above windows doesn't hang around to wait for the DS ping (keep meaning to look up a vbs or bat file just to open and close the mapped drives after windows has booted)
 
I dont get 100% when streaing mkvs but then mine only plays 80% of a mkv on ps3 and then dies randomly lots of people getting it synology have said there looking into but it looks like there new transcode feature is the issue. only used 30% of cpu and memory tops. Same when streaming 20GB mkvs on the pc hardly any cpu etc is yours quite an old model?
 
I use a superhub too. I assume the NAS is on a dynamic ip as standard? Given it a static ip now and that seem's to have work. fingers crossed!
