FAQs

How do I update the DiskStation Manager (DSM)?

Go to the Control Panel in DSM, then click on 'Update & Restore.' Follow the on-screen instructions to download and install the latest DSM updates.

What RAID level should I choose?

RAID 5 and RAID 6 offer a good balance of storage capacity and data protection. RAID 10 provides excellent performance and data protection but uses more storage space. Choose the level that best suits your needs.

How do I back up my data on the DS2422+?

Use the 'Hyper Backup' package in DSM to create backups to another Synology NAS, a USB drive, or a cloud service.

Can I access my files remotely?

Yes, you can access your files remotely using QuickConnect or by setting up port forwarding on your router.

How do I add users and set up shared folders?

Go to the Control Panel in DSM, then click on 'User & Group' to add users. Use 'Shared Folder' to create and manage shared folders and set user permissions.

How do I monitor the NAS's health?

Use the 'Storage Manager' in DSM to monitor the health of your drives and storage pools. Also, check the resource monitor for CPU and RAM usage.

What is the warranty period?

The warranty period for the DS2422+ is typically two to three years, depending on the region. Check the Synology website for specific warranty details.

Troubleshooting

NAS not powering on.

Check the power cable connection and ensure the power outlet is working. If the issue persists, contact Synology support.

Network connection problems.

Verify the Ethernet cable connection and network settings. Ensure the NAS and your computer are on the same network. Check that your router's firewall is not blocking access.

Slow transfer speeds.

Check the network connection speed, disk health and ensure you are using a fast Ethernet cable. Consider using SSD cache to improve performance. Check disk health and defragment or optimize the storage pool.
