How to increase the shutdown temperature on Synology NAS

Synology: how to increase shutdown temperature

My Synology DS218+ runs with a single SSD disk that has an operating temperature range of 0–70 °C, which is common for SSDs. Synology, however, has a default shutdown temperature of 61 °C, probably due to HDDs and some lazy programming.

I'm a very light user of NAS – all I want is a network attached storage and silence. My DS218+ has one 2 TB SSD disk in it and I've changed the system fan for a quieter / slower one.

Everything runs fine but about once in a month, I get this notification:

[Synology DS218+]Synology shut down due to disk overheating. >
