You might be wondering why I dont have replication in the synology i have at home. Here is how it works, cloud station ShareSync, syncs the folders between my two NAS and the replication makes hourly, daily, weekly, quarterly and yearly copies of it. So how do I did it? Back up to another SynologyĪnd this is my secret: cloud station ShareSync combined with replication is the best backup system I can think of. So, it doesn’t come cheap, but it is by far the best method to backup your files,specially if you can place it in somebody else’s house. I will talk about replication in another post, promise. You have no idea how many times the replication function has saved me from big disasters….like deleting all the content on my synology….(a story for another day).

So said and done, I bought it, configured it and put it in his house.Īs the Synology is a newer model, I made sure to install the disk with a Btrfs format and I then could have Replication on the backup. I can buy a Synology for my backups and put it my fathers house, so I have my own external cloud backup and he has a machine to play with. When my USB backup disk died, that is when I thought of it.

I have countless of times talked to my father about it and showed him to (he is tech nerd as me) and I always wanted to give him a synology as a present. I have a Synology DS713+ and I love that little machine. I am doing it differently now and it is the best change i ever did on the synology.
