Re: The TOS 6 Beta Is Now Available for Public Testing

Has anyone tried this on an F5-422? TOS5 was a disaster for me so I'm hoping this version works better.

F5-422 TOS5 or not?

Hi all

I have recently bought an F5-422 and I am not sure whether to try upgrading to TOS5 or not. Is there any advantage to upgrading, in terms of disk speed, etc?

Thanks

Should I go back to TOS4?

I am using EXT4 on my F5-221 and use it only to watch...

Re: Emby updating to beta

I have the same issue, also when trying to install the latest Emby package, it takes about 30 minutes. Doing the same thing on TOS4 though takes seconds.

Re: How can I update to TOS5?

Thanks. I haven't got a ups I'm afraid. I used BTRFS on my desktop but I've not had great results with it on the NAS, although that could be because the root partition was too small.

I think I'll stick to TRAID and EXT4 when I install TOS5 though.

Thanks again for your help

Re: How can I update to TOS5?

Hi, thanks for you reply. I didn't realise the root partition was on the hard drives, I thought there was some internal flash memory in the NAS.
