there goes my 71 day boot time record

upgraded from within the control panel no problems so far (services that were disabled are still disabled following the upgrade)

took around 6 minutes, much less than the suggested 20 minutes

i do have to ask does the DLNA media server have to wipe its database and rescan every time though? could it not remember as following the boot its now chugging away rebuilding its database (its not a problem but now consuming a lot of processing power to do this when in reality nothing has changed)

Thanks.
Then you may update the release note accordingly, stating TOS Patch 1.18 is included, and update TOS Patch description mentioning max release number.
Being clearer & up-to-date within release notes dramatically help system maintenance.
Thanks for consideration.

Thank you for your suggestion, we will write in the future that the new system already contains the contents of the patch package before the release.

TerraMaster,

Can you please sign, hash, and post the hash/keys here alongside these manual downloads?

This is critical, especially given the recent malware attacks.

We need to be able to verify what were are getting.

Previously, I contacted technical support many times about the problem of a memory leak in the "msgcenter" process. I reinstalled TOS today, to version TOS 4.2.20, unfortunately, I did not get what I expected from this update (technical support promised to fix it in the next update, that is ) there is still a RAM leak, through the "msgcenter" process for 8 hours of work, the growth was from 0.3% to 1.1% (as in previous firmware ~ 2% per day)
I don't understand, it's just me having a problem with "msgcenter" other F4-210 don't have? Or you don’t pay attention to it, because in a month of continuous work 90% of the RAM will be gobbled up.
When will the problem with "msgcenter" be solved?
