Hyper Backup running a task towards Synology C2 Backup towards C2 platform, is only feasible via Hyper Backup, or a slightly different method if you are using the new Hybrid Share feature within DSM 7. I have previously written about it and other new C2 services, but the focus will now be on backing up NAS data. If you don't happen to have another Synology device that would be suitable for backup, you can always perform the same via the Synology C2 cloud platform. From another Synology NAS, another alternative server/NAS, and even some of the many 3rd party cloud destinations. The advantage of this package is certainly that you can choose almost anything for the destination itself. This is where Hyper Backup comes into play.
#Synology drive sync vs backup how to
If your data is only on the NAS, then you need to consider how to protect that part in case something happens to the device itself. While many view the NAS as their backup, this may be true on the assumption that the data is already on another device/location.
What exactly is Hyper Backup? This particular package offers you the ability to create a backup, for all your data already on the NAS. Of these four, Hyper Backup is certainly the most popular, and at the same time available on absolutely all models (unlike some below). Let's look at what all these backup tools are, how they are used and in which situations, and whether you must use them all or you can satisfy all your needs through one of them. Therefore, there are several different applications/platforms in the Synology toolkit that I will cover in this article.
The NAS device can use various methods, protocols, and finally the direction of execution when it comes to backup. What is characteristic of all brands of NAS devices, including Synology, is that they have a large number of applications that fall into this category. So is a bad backup.Everyone who uses Synology NAS (or NAS in general) mostly does so out of a few basic needs. I’ll have to see if they offer a solution.
#Synology drive sync vs backup Pc
I’ve been wrestling with this problem for some time, and now I think I’ll just use a Windows PC to backup the Synology. Is Synology trying to be difficult? One folder?įrom my vantage point, Synology does not provide an adequate backup solution for small business users any more. I created a backup job and it allowed me to choose any user folder on the NAS, but I could only choose 1 and I could not add another job for other folders!? I need to backup about 10 folders. Also, I cannot browse the backup from my Windows based PCs without more software. My USB drive is out of space and I cannot remove anything from the backup file.
I was using Hyper Backup for this until today. I want to backup about 10 PCs that use something like Cobian backup to copy data to the single server in a folder for each user. I think it’s a bit misleading, for me anyway. Hyper Backup Vault is an application that let other diskstation’s backup to your diskstation with Hyper Backup. To schedule the backup with versions is the preferred solution. This backup can be scheduled and you can also run in rotation with up to 254 versions. The backup destination can be on the same diskstation (the same or on a different volume) or another diskstation.īackup to another diskstation is, of course, the best solutions and especially if stored at a remote location. You can backup important configuration files, application configuration files and other folders you chose with both compression and client-side encryption if you wish. This is the primary backup for the diskstation. Hyper Backup – The main Synology backup solutionįirst is the new backup solution named Hyper Backup. I have listed all the backup and sync solutions below and how it works. At first, it can be a bit confusing, but every Synology backup and sync solution have its purpose and its uses. Synology Diskstations with DSM 6 has several ways to do backups.
