+> **NOTE!** DVC requires SSH and SFTP access to work properly. Please use `ssh`
+> and `sftp` CLI commands to ensure that you are able to connect to your remote.
+
+> **NOTE!** Your server's SFTP root might differ from the physical root
+> (see `ChrootDirectory` config option in `/etc/ssh/sshd_config`), in which
+> case you have to specify `/path/to/dir` component of the remote url relative
+> to the SFTP root and not the physical root. For example, on some Synology NASes
+> your SFTP root might correspond to a physical directory `/volume1`, in which
+> case you should specify something like `ssh://[email protected]/path/to/dir`
+> instead of `ssh://[email protected]/volume1/path/to/dir`.
