Download Firmware Synology DSM 6.0 Build 7274 Beta 2

Synology has released the second beta release of version 6.0 of Disk Station Manager. Synology DSM is the management software that runs on several of the company’s NAS products. The Disk, Cube and Rack Stations offer more than just extra storage space. For example, backups of all clients on the network can be made and files can be downloaded via http, ftp, bittorrent, usenet and emule, so that, for example, energy-hungry PCs can switch off at night while the download just comes in. Furthermore, 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.

To be able to install version 6.0, at least version 5.2 must be present. Furthermore, it is only suitable for the NAS models whose type number ends with 11 or higher. For the other conditions and the different downloads, look at this page. In version 6.0 we find improvements in Cloud, Note, Photo and Video Station, there is a collaboration drive for spreadsheets and the possibilities for backup and restore have been improved. Also, DSM is now fully 64-bit and therefore performance improvements can be observed. In addition, there are several new features for high-performance models, including support for the btrfsfile system, a comprehensive webmail client and email server, a Load Balancer, a Document Viewer, and Docker support has also been improved.

In beta 2, mainly the sharp edges of beta 1 have been fixed. For example, Surveillance Station can be used again, something that was missing in beta 1. The most important improvements in Disk Station Manager are listed below for you. For other conditions, restrictions and what has changed in the Packages and Mobile Apps, see this page.
