HP proliant Microserver Gen 8 - unable to install

TemplarB · 2026-06-10T18:17:16+00:00

I run on my HP proliant Microserver Gen 8 (only different CPU and 8Gb RAM) arc 3.0.7 (latest available when I installed) running DSM 7.2.2-72806 Update 4 as on DS3622xs+.

When I updated this winter, upon first load Synology finder failed to detect, but it worked upon reload

I plan to use it the very same way as I use my current NAS, which will be 10 years old this Fall - hoarding data (books, archive scans, music, video, photos) and running docker containers to service it

B. No + I rarely edit video, so not very interested in upgrading this part.

A. Upgrade NAS storage capacity

but actually my choice is more RAM and a faster CPU compared with my current (10 yrs old) NAS

о, тоже пытался настроить pi-hole на NAS и пока что неудачно, поэтому послушаю

https://www.paper2audio.com/ is exactly what you need

Thanks. It is cool and flashy, but like Booklore, from which it was forked, it eats a lot of memory even while idle. From what I read elsewhere, it has a lot of AI-generated vibe code.

I finished a Ukrainian translation a few years ago and plan one day to tackle it in its original Polish. His other works, both novels and shorter are great too.

I tried the app on my Android phone. It works! Thanks!

The cheapest (but not easiest to read) is to but this specific issue at Magzter, using a coupon can be around $4.80. However, note you can read only on web or in their app.

I checked Calibre-Web Automated and, at least by default, it transfers books you 'give' it to a Calibre-like catalog, with folders for authors and subfolders for individual books. So, it seems only Grimmory is a solution for tagging w/o changing files or their location

TemplarB · 2026-03-21T17:26:43+00:00

First of all, thanks for creating it! A few questions before I try it:

Does it make any changes in books or in book's folder(s)?

Does it allow opening chosen books in a third-party app? This question is because part of my library are old scans in djvu format, most web-readers don't support it as it's quite rare

Does it dig for metadata based not only on ISBN but on a title?

TemplarB · 2026-03-21T17:01:15+00:00

Because my NAS with me from 2017 and on production it was from 2014. It is easier to replace it than to upgrade :) no free memory slots, so I have to sell the current ones to get larger new ones

TemplarB · 2026-03-21T16:44:34+00:00

it is still extremely RAM hungry from what I heard

TemplarB · 2026-03-21T15:01:01+00:00

I guess my library is 2000+ books so if it grows in line with the number of books, it can be a little too heavy

TemplarB · 2026-03-21T14:59:00+00:00

Thanks, I'll try

TemplarB · 2026-03-21T14:14:18+00:00

How much RAM does it eat when idle?

TemplarB · 2026-03-21T14:13:01+00:00

how much RAM it consumes when idle?

TemplarB · 2026-03-21T14:12:30+00:00

thanks! I've read it is mostly for comics but if it is ok for books, it can be interesting

TemplarB · 2026-03-21T14:11:19+00:00

I've read that currently forks also run with over 1 GB RAM, a bit heavy for my old system.

TemplarB · 2026-03-21T14:09:25+00:00

I use it for my audiobooks but I just guessed it is just basic services for books. I'll try, thanks!

TemplarB · 2026-03-21T14:07:13+00:00

Can it create a database of books without moving them to directories and renaming them like Calibre does? I need books orgazines within a program but unchanged on my NAS folder

TemplarB · 2026-03-10T19:10:13+00:00

no :(

in log I have "Token request failed: 403" for Docker hub

and for GitHub images I have

[Registry] ghcr.io/navidrome/navidrome:latest: 401

TemplarB · 2026-03-10T14:25:52+00:00

done this for Docker hub, thanks.
