HI folks,
Does anyone know where I can get a Synology DS220J NAS looked at and, hopefully, repaired? I appreciate the unit is out of warranty but the manufacturer is being stubbornly unhelpful
Last week it started becoming unresponsive with the LAN and disk activity lights flashing like Blackpool illuminations on speed. I forced a power down followed by a power up and was then able to log into the unit's dashboard and run a health check - everything came back "healthy".
After that it worked normally for a couple of days before falling over again with the same symptoms. Forcing it to power down again gave me the opportunity open the case up and give it a clean inside. There was a fair amount of dust but nothing obviously amiss. Since then it has been sat disconnected on my desk and I could really do with it right now
Fortunately, the NAS was used as a backup and I have it backed up to two further places so there's no risk of data loss. I also used the NAS as the source to stream music, photos and videos to the TV.
