Bonjour,

Savez-vous s'il est possible d'acheter la Carte Mère de ce model?

Merci d'avance pour votre réponse

Bonjour,

N'oubliez pas qu'en mettant les disques dans une baie plus récente,

le NAS va migrer le système avec les données.

De fait, sauf pour une application très particulière,

il ne semble pas y avoir un intérêt économique à racheter une carte mère de 2020

Sinon il faudrait l'acheter / la trouver très peu cher …

D'ailleurs, pas certain qu'elle soit encore produite (j'en doute fortement même).

Cela dit, demandez à Synology directement (leur site n'en parle pas : https://www.synology.com/fr-fr/products/...)

Ils ont leur réseau de distributeur et depuis que maintenant ils proposent de la maintenance c'est possible qu'il le reste du stock (ca reste un modèle grand public donc pas certain).

Sinon il reste l'occasion … avec les risques associés …

Bref pas si simple …
