Hi

i recently had to replace the hard drive in my Synology NAS and on reconnecting the NAS to the Sonos I got error 900 unable to add music library. 

Both had been working flawlessly before the hard drive replacement.

thanks in advance

    Yes, you must run SMB1.

    Sonos allows other SMB versions since a couple of weeks: https://support.sonos.com/s/article/3521?language=en_US

    For S2 only. If you’re using S1, you still must use SMB v1 and NTML 1

      I’ve found a workaround for using S1 with a Synology NAS without activating SMB1.

      1. Create a free Plex account. A free Plex account won’t work on mobile stand alone, but that’s not an issue for our use case.
      2. Install Plex via Package manager on your Synology. From there, point Plex towards your music share folder.
      3. Add a music service in your S1 Sonos setup and look for Plex
      4. All set! Play all your lossless files without compromising security. Sonos’ in app search function will also look within Plex which is great.

      You might need to add a wired connection to your Connect as I encountered bandwidth issues. But with an ethernet cable plugged in, this setup ran smoothly.

      Thanks to all.  Not one action suggested here solved my problem, but the thread gave me a place to start to work the problem.  SMB1, NTLMv1, renaming my NAS, finding that I had an extra space in my username (no thanks to auto fill!), and making sure that the pathway had the right capitalizations were all important.  I was at this for hours.  I was about to send hate mail to the CEO.  (Why was this so HARD?)

      Again, thanks folks!
