“The missing manual that should have been supplied with the DiskStation”

With superb functionality and ease of use through the acclaimed DSM operating system, Synology DiskStations are the NAS of choice for the discerning purchaser. Whether it is the storage and sharing of information, the streaming of videos, music and photos to computers and smart devices, video surveillance, or the ability to have a private cloud that allows access to information from anywhere without subscription charges, the DiskStation can do it. But this power and flexibility comes at a price and setting up a DiskStation for the very first time can seem a daunting prospect, especially as it is not supplied with a manual. This comprehensive, experience-based guide, with over 380 illustrations and screen shots and proven easy-to-follow instructions, will take you through the process from start to finish and help ensure that your home or small business network is a success. Covers working with Windows, macOS, Linux, Chromebooks, Smartphones and tablets.
