Core Storage Upgrade
DSM 7.1 provides important improvements in the use of storage management.
Starting with the introduction of a file aggregation portal, this release adds DFS SMB capabilities to allow administrators to connect multiple Synology systems, giving users easier file access without having to remember each file location.
The new user interface introduced in the 7.0 release has been further optimized by consolidating background tasks into an easy view for administrators with transparency within the system, even across different user accounts.
For Synology High Availability clusters, users can now view and manage drives on both systems from a single Storage Manager instance for easier maintenance and management.
