tip Synology DSM 7 drive lock bypass

[Stege]

Hallo
 

Welchen Dienst muss ich neu starten, damit ich nicht die gesamte Diskstation neu starten muss?

Ich möchte dies mit einem Skript automatisieren.

Sie können das Update in der GUI durchführen. Man müsste nur herausfinden, welcher Befehl ausgeführt wird. Unter Speicher-Manager -> HDD/SSD -> Einstellungen unten Laufwerksdatenbank aktualisieren.

Wenn ich die Schaltfläche verwende, wird die Datei mit dem Original überschrieben.

"disk_compatbility_info":{"MG08ACA16TE":{"0102":{compatibility_interval":[{"compatibility":"support"}]},"default":{"compatibility_interval":[{"compatibility":"support"}]}},"nas_model":"ds3622xs+"}

Hello!

I could use some help with editing the files for my 2421+.  I'm not a Linux guy and would love some guidance!  TIA!

Does anybody know which database file is used on Synology NAS so that newer Seagate IronWolf disks are recognized in the section IronWolf Health in Health Info on the Storage Manager? So I can add a newer IronWolf disk to it.

 

For example Seagate IronWolf 10TB ST10000VN0008-2JJ101 is recognized there, but the newer version ST10000VN0008-2PJ103 is not.

I have been using NETGEAR Readynas Boxes in my home office for many years.
Was looking for another RN628x Box as a Backup System - to find out that NETGEAR
is out of this business - all NAS systems are EOL (end of life)
Like other members of this forum, I have dozens of Enterprise Class Disks which I intended
to use in a SYNOLOGY RS4021xs (diskless).
I am not willing to throw away all the good disks and will use the "config file hacks" discussed here.
(I found hints in other forums but the only info was  "a hack in DSM is needed")

Thanks to Peppershade who provided *real* help here!

Found an easier way to do this thanks to this comment here - 

Edit the file:

/etc.defaults/synoinfo.conf

Then find the option support_disk_compatibility and change it from yes to no

support_disk_compatibility="no"

Then reboot.

 

Side note: If anyone else is using this to make the E10M20-T1 work with unverified SSDs I find I often have to cold boot the NAS (RS2421+) to get the SSDs cache to show up.

Thank you for this find. Lets see if this survives an update.

But even if not, this change is less of a hassle!

Hi guys, I wrote a little python script to adjust the drive compatibility list by a scheduled task.

Feedback is highly appreciated.

To make DSM recognize the changed DB without reboot:

 

/usr/syno/sbin/synostgdisk --check-all-disks-compatibility

 

@kevinschmitt maybe you can add it to your script, this would make it work without reboot

This solution worked for me on the DS3622xs+ main unit but not on its DX1222 extension. Have any of you found a solution for the error that remains on the expansion units? thank you all

For my RS3621RPxs,   changing of   support_disk_compatibility="no"   in  /etc.defaults/synoinfo.conf 

 

did not survive an update to  DSM 7.1.1-42962 Update 4

 

But I changed it back then rebooted without problems

I have a DX1222 connected to a DS2422+.  While the synoinfo.conf trick works for the DS2422+, the DX requires the old fashioned disk-compatibility trick.  what worked for me:

 

you need to add entries to the db files for the main unit & the expansion.  syntax that worked for DSM 7.1.1-42962 Update 4 was:

 

"WD141KFGX-68FH9N0":{"83.00A83":{"compatibility_interval":[{"compatibility":"support","not_yet_rolling_status":"support","fw_dsm_update_status_notify":false,"barebone_installable":true}]},"default":{"compatibility_interval":[{"compatibility":"support","not_yet_rolling_status":"support","fw_dsm_update_status_notify":false,"barebone_installable":true}]}},

update to dsm 7.2 support_disk_compatibility="no"  is not working.

 

Have anyone  Found a New Way fix this issues.

 

Thanks

I Heard that on DSM 7.2 it shows the warning, about the compatibility, but the third party hdd are working without any intervention, is it true?

I want to buy synology rs3621xs+ and and some DC HC550 18TB HDDs for it. But was wondering, if hacking whitelist is still the only option to get it going.

The xs and xs+ models will work with any brand drives but in storage manager, and at boot up, there will be warnings that make you think your storage pool is degraded. The https://github.com/007revad/Synology_HDD_db script prevents them.
