#SYNOLOGY DRIVE ENCRYPTION HOW TO#
Is it not possible to encrypt a USB drive on the Diskstation, whether btrfs/ecryptfs or something else? If so, how is this not doable? TIA.Ī user described how to do it here and that method still works, using the built in ecryptfs now 55 minutes later I'm still barely finding any related search results, and what I'm finding is people using third-party software to create encrypted containers from their connected Windows machine/etc. I am seeing no way to in the GUI Diskstation interfaces to do this, so I thought I'd google it and in a few minutes find the shell commands to let me work around the lack of options in the GUI, and. I was expecting to just connect the drive, and 60 seconds later have formatted it with btrfs/ecryptfs and encrypted it.
I've got a DS1618+ with an external USB drive attached.
