Depuis décembre dernier, je suis équipé d’un NAS Synology DS209+ dans un souci d’accessibilité de mes données et de sécurité aussi.
Pleinement satisfait par ce produit, je lui reprochais juste sa gestion minimaliste de son DLNA. Je suivais l’annonce du lancement de la Beta du Disk Station Manager en verison 2.2 qui annonçait un changement à ce niveau.
Disponible depuis peu, il apporte effectivement un nombre conséquent de changements dont la gestion des médias offrant unr plus grande souplesse de configuration.
Au delà de ce point, j’apprécie l’auto block permettant de refuser l’accès à distance suivant un nombre d’échecs paramétrable et le monitoring qui faisait défaut jusqu’à présent.
Je continue mon tour d’horizon mais cette version du Disk Station Manager semble prometteuse.
La liste des features Disk Station Manager v2.2
1.
