10Gbe Synology DiskStation Direct Connection Quick Guide over 10 Gigabit Ethernet
Once you have installed the 10Gbe network card into the Synology NAS and connected it directly to your 10 Gbe network card on your computer via a 10 Gbe compatible network cable, you can now proceed to visit the main page of your Synology NAS or DiskStation.
From here select the Main Menu and then Control Panel.
Now click on Network and then the Network Interface tab.
Here you should see a LAN connection that has 10 Gb enabled. This will have a dedicated IP address which you need to use to connect directly to your Synology NAS for the 10 Gb speeds.
Copy this IP address and enter it directly in to File Explorer on the connected computer after TWO backslashes. Now you should see the shares available on the NAS.
Perform a copy test using a large file from the computer to one of the folders. This should now perform a copy much faster but bear in mind that the drive speed and interface could be a limiting factor to the speed. In this example we're using a SATA SSD on the Synology which tops out about 550 Mbs.
And that's it. You can now proceed to setup a Network Drive for quick and easy access using the direct connection to the Synology NAS DiskStation.
