You showed up in my feed. Gotta say you probably have the most simple presentation of Snapshots I’ve seen! Guess I’ll be subscribing now! 😎👍🏻 BTW, saw some acoustic panels up there, you a musician or audio engineer too? 😬
Glad I watched this video. I somehow overlooked enabling snapshot retention on nas boxes 2 and 3. Snapshot policies must not copy over when using a settings restore from one nas box to another under the same synology account. I swear, I'm going to need a physical binder with notes and a checklist when setting up new nas boxes from now on. There's too many things to tweak or forget about.
Great channel! Best of all are the hi-tech 3D AI generated graphics!!!!! I use snapshots and replication. I understand that there are three partitions on every DSM disk. Two DSM OS partitions and the data partition. What I am not sure about is how or where the DSM settings (users, passwords, etc..) are stored. Is that in 'backup configuration' from the Update & Restore section? Is the only way to restore Apps and settings through Hyperbackup? I ask because I recently had a hardware issue with a volume and none of the built in repairs worked so I ended up spending a couple days resetting DSM and restoring from Hyper Backup. I now have snapshot replication setup to a 220+ so I can failover and have less down time. So, if I have another hardware issue, I will have to reinstall DSM and then failover from the 220+ back to the new setup. But I'm guessing this will not have the apps and settings reinstated because the share only has share data? With Hyperbackup you can save apps/settings with data. Do I need a DSM backup configuration restore, a Hyperbackup task with only apps (no data) followed by a failover for the shortest downtime? Thanks. Looking forward for more great content!
Only issue with using a snapshot is that it removes current data instead of restoring the missing data. Example: you delete a picture from a folder with a few hundred. If you use snapshot to restore the file, it also removes the ones saved after the one you deleted.
Great coverage! Very bad product - btrfs is not good as ZFS and Synology need to make their products better and not outdated because their greediness . It’s about time someone will say it, Synology increase the resources of your nases and add ZFS support. The echo system is old and only the apps kept them alive, even unraid and qnap have done it
You're a natural on camera, keep up the good work! Excited to see the channel grow
Just amazing,
Wish someone would explain basics of physics and staics and dynamics to me like this.

Clear and effective!
You are a good teacher.

Agreed, basic btrfs is not a reliable product. Synology has its own version of btrfs and IS great.
