Assuming you are then: by chance, have you tested overall TimeMachine support with various MacOS systems (particularly later ones)?
Is the very-long-awaited quota support for TimeMachine storage working? Is your NAS formatted as ext4 or btrfs?

Thanks for any information.

if the this version requires you to fresh install the system i.e no upgrade, why is there a requirement to have 4.2.09 or later?

just curious about this decision as surely a fresh install wouldnt care about the previous version?

In fact, it is related to the initboot system version of the TNAS. The old initboot system will cause TOS 5 installation failure. In addition, the initboot system will be updated with the TOS system update.

I haven’t tested TOS with Time Machine, as I have a QNAP that has done TM for many years for me. (I’m on 12.3 (Dev beta, though this is the RC that will be pushed out soon). I’ll give it a go later and report back

Unfortunately i'm stuck on admin parameter setup after having fresh install new firmware 5.0 on my F2-221 , nothing move if I click on "next" button, even if I skip email code verification (I tested on linux, windows, firefox, chrome)
Something look corrupted... even after a reset start ( 2 HDD removed)
Additionally, TNAS PC doesn't launch on my windows 11 (and doesn't exist on linux yet), icon stay in the task bar but no windows appears

Is there something I can do ? don't worry I already lost everything with deadbolt, you can continue to ignore my pain, after all I'm just a customer that was fully satisfied until a recent cut-off point :(

Thanks!
Can you test what happens when the limit is reached (graceful fail on Mac side), maybe setting a much lower quota?
Is you TNAS formatted btrfs or ext4? Not sure quota limit works in both cases...

Thx Charlie it did the trick ... and made me lol considering that securing our admin account is then impossible despite of recent malware attack
