This is my 2nd post on this forum, I'm very happy to get to know this wonderful tool.

I'm currently using a HDD conected via USB to a Synology USB Station 2 running DSM 3.2-1983.

Would it be possible to run Minim on this device?

I'll upgrade to a proper NAS in the future, but by now this is what I have !

Thanks and regards,

Larry

You should be able to install Java and MinimServer on the USB Station 2 by following the instructions on this page for ARMv5 models. Please let me know how you get on with this.

Quote:UPDATE:

Just found out there is an "alternative" firmware for the USB Station that allows to install IPKG package manager, so you can install additional software in top of the synology functionality... Would this be helpful to install Minim?

It would be better to leave the firmware unchanged and install the Synology ARMv5 package.
