Ya tenemos el changelog para la versión oficial de DSM 5.0, es difícil saber en un primer momento las modificaciones que incorpora respecto a la última beta disponible pero podemos hacernos una rápida idea de algunas de algunas de ellas, como novedades adelanto que ya funciona de nuevo el buscador BitTorrent de NewPCT que fallaba en muchos modelos en la beta de DSM 5.0, además con la versión oficial ya hay soporte para el Google Chromecast que estaba a la espera de la certificación de Google y parece que ya ha llegado.
Paralelamente el mostrar la previsión meteorológica en la ventana de login de DSM si utilizabas una conexión segura HTTPS, y recuerda que es necesario actualizar gran parte de las app's de Synology para que sean compatibles con esta versión de DSM.
En esta versión como bugs reconocidos nos encontramos con:
- Problema en la sincronización con Google Drive en la que si no se sincronizar los archivos en el intervalo de una hora deberemos volver a transferir los archivos
- Los usuarios deben establecer manualmente los permisos para el usuario Plex en el Panel de Control para permitir que la aplicación Plex Media Server pueda leer la carpeta compartida con los archivos multimedia.
Errores Corregidos:
Logitech Media Server
- The album and movie covers might not display correctly
- Media formats that require transcoding might not work
Windows File Services
- SMB2 does not support the extended attributes for Mac OS X 10.9.1 in DSM 5.0 beta. For files and folders with certain types of extended attributes named "resource fork", such as custom icon and default application settings, the main file/folder context will be saved without any resource fork data.
Cloud Station
- Cloud Station computer client version 2.0-2391 and 2.0-2402 will not be automatically upgraded.
Photo Station
- Photos or videos stored in shared folders which have converted to Windows ACL or created in DSM 5.0 may not be copied to Photo Station from the web uploading interface. To solve this, please go to Control Panel > Shared Folders, and assign Read permission to the http group on the shared folder in question.
Central Management System
- Cannot add Synology NAS servers with passwords that include these characters +, ?, %, &.
The URL is incorrect when launching apps from a remote server over an HTTPS connection.
DSM Desktop
- The network traffic section of the Resource Monitor widget shows “0 KB/s” when it is minimized to the taskbar.
Backup & Replication
- To backup system configurations, a backup task must be created in Backup & Replication.
Antivirus Essential & McAfee
- The button to update virus definitions is not hidden when using certain display languages. To find the button, please change the display language to English.

You can bridge your wired connection with Wi-Fi hotspot(s) to extend your wireless network range and unify your existing local network and the wireless network hosted on your DiskStation.
Snapshot Manager
Synology Snapshot Manager software plugin available on vSphere and Windows Server environments to create application-consistent snapshots in DSM.
For VMware environments, you can install Synology Snapshot Manager for VMware vCenter Server on Windows Server. After installation, when a snapshot is triggered on DSM, vCenter Server will be notified and flush all the data from memory to the LUN to guarantee data consistency. Once the snapshot is complete, vCenter Server will resume normal I/O operation of VMware datastore.
For Windows environment, you can install Synology Snapshot Manager for Windows Server. After installation, when a snapshot is triggered on DSM, Synology Snapshot Manager will use the Microsoft Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS) technology to produce consistent point-in-time copies of data. Synology Snapshot Manager for Windows Server also supports performing snapshots when triggered by 3rd party software via VSS.
Synology Snapshot Manager for VMware vCenter Server supports vSphere 5.1 or later, and vSphere web client server plugin is required for application interface.
