[SOLVED] RPi3A+ Network instability.

[the_bertrum]

A quick search of the InterWeb™ reveals that folks have been complaining about these @eaDir directories in the Synology Community for at least a decade. Here's an expletive-punctuated example: https://community.synology.com/enu/forum/17/post/70878

I hate to indulge in Shadenfreude but boy am I glad I don't have a Synology NAS under the desk. I admit I was tempted more than once 'cuz my DIY NASes look ugly and lack bells and whistles (the "it's so easy a caveman can do it" interface) but they are easy to understand/configure/modify.

Still, there's lots of Synology users out there so finding a way to inoculate moOde would help cut down on the support traffic. Good hunting.

But is it sooo pretty Kent.  All shiny and white and monolithic.

The easy to use features are great as far as they go, it's nice to be able to connect from anywhere with reasonable out of the box security, but the software has clearly been designed by people who make storage solutions rather than by people who use them.  It can be a faff to configure anything vaguely advanced as well, three screens in different sections to tie NFS together so it works for example.
In short, not perfect, but not rubbish enough to justify changing it either.
