RR (Redpill Recovery) is a preinstallation and recovery bootloader environment that lets users boot Synology DSM on arbitrary x86/x64 hardware or VMs with a single flash of a prebuilt bootloader image. It includes tooling to build custom bootloader images, select Synology models and versions, and install drivers/addons, with one-click deployment for Proxmox VE.

Use cases

  • run Synology DSM on my own x86 hardware
  • create a custom Synology bootloader for a NAS build
  • boot DSM in a Proxmox VM with one click
  • recover or reinstall a redpill bootloader on a flash drive
  • add drivers and addons to a Synology boot image
  • self-host a Synology-like NAS without Synology hardware

When to choose

  • you want to run Synology DSM on non-Synology x86/x64 machines or VMs
  • you need a maintained, actively updated redpill-style bootloader with recovery tooling
  • you want automated model/version selection and driver injection during bootloader build

When to avoid

  • you need a production-supported, licensed NAS OS for commercial use (the project forbids commercial use)
  • you are unwilling to risk data loss from custom bootloader modifications
  • you need ARM-based Synology hardware emulation, since only x86/x64 is supported
