Synology: Creating a Remote Mount between two Synology NAS arrays
This post will walk through the steps create a remote mount between two Synology NAS arrays. Why would you want to do this? Well, read on...
Introduction
It’s no mystery that I run a homelab for personal and work purposes. I’m also lucky to own two Synology NAS arrays. My first NAS unit is a DS414. It’s a bit old, but it continues to hum along nicely. I need to make some time to upgrade the firmware on it. It’s still back on the 6.x firmware. As of the time I’m writing this post the latest firmware is 7.1.x. Stay tuned for post on how to do the upgrade. My other NAS unit is a DS1821+ This unit is great. This unit is running the latest firmware. It has eight drive bays and supports adding an external expansion unit. This means the maximum volume size supported is a whopping 108 TB!! I don’t see myself ever expanding to that size. But it’s nice to know I can.
