Firmware Update: Synology Disk Station Manager 4.3 build 3810.4

Synology has released a fourth update of version 4.3 build 3810 of Disk Station Manager. Synology DSM is the management software that runs on several of the company’s NAS products. The Disk, Cube and Rack Stations offer more than just extra storage space. For example, backups of all clients on the network can be made and files can be downloaded via http, ftp, bittorrent, usenet and eMule, so that, for example, energy-hungry PCs can switch off at night while the download just comes in. Furthermore, audio and video files can be streamed over the network via the built-in iTunes server, a dynamic website can be hosted using PHP and MySQL and the device can act as a print server.

This update is only suitable for the NAS models ending in 10 or higher. For the other conditions, see this page. A live demo is available on this page are being found. Version 4.3 contains a huge list of changes, too many to list here. This update also brings the following improvements:
