Synology
This is a place for all topics regarding Synology hard- and software - especially (but not limited to) their NAS devices.
Just one thing: Let’s please be pleasant to each other and respect that people have different experience levels. Some are pros, some are noobs, yet everybody may have good ideas or interesting questions to ask and comments to make, and all of these shall be heard and appreciated. ❤️
And since we know from TV that all IT nerds 🤓 are h4xx0rs
and wear hoodies all the time (if not even ski masks) in front of their computers, I chose an appropriate banner image (image credit).

I've had my 920+ for a few years and love it, save for the BTRFS constant disk activity bug in DSM7 that they haven't fixed since day 1. Just don't have it in a quiet room of that kind of thing annoys you.
I don't make use of any "sign into Synology" products or services. There are better ways to do all of it that don't involve their cloud if you have the time, skill and inclination.
Synology Photos is an excellent photo management product (think Google Photos). As is their Drive product, that works on all devices and OSs (think Dropbox). Either will automatically back up photos and screenshots you take on a mobile device.
Backing up to it or backing it up? Very different animals.
