Download Firmware Synology Disk Station Manager 4.3 build 3776

The final release of Disk Station Manager version 4.3 has been released. Synology DSM is the management software that runs on several of the company’s NAS products.

In addition, audio and video files can be streamed over the network via the built-in iTunes server, a dynamic website can be hosted using PHP and MySQL and the device can act as a print server.

Version 4.3 can only be installed over DSM version 4.0 or higher and is only suitable for the nas models ending with 10 or higher. For the other conditions, see this page.
