Coming in early June, here is something that we have not yet seen from a global NAS company like Synology. A compact, ultimate personal data backup solution, as it's being called. Here is the BeeDrive. Continue reading...

I have a primary NAS (a DS916+) backing up to a secondary device offsite (a DS220j); both running latest DSM 7. They are connected "directly" to each other via Tailscale with a scheduled backup from the primary to the offsite. (aside: they're both behind SOHO routers/gateways, with the usual...

Hello, during installation, I skipped QuickConnect as I read that using it would create a security risk and I use the NAS only in local home network. Then, it asked me if I would like to enable Around-the-clock monitoring and protection as well as DSM configuration backup. If I don't check...

Hi, I am setting up the NAS and installing DSM. I have one Seagate 8TB HDD. In the future, I may buy one more to use SHR but not sure yet as I may end up using SSD. Given that redundancy is not the same as backup, what is the point for putting two drives in the NAS vs. one drive in the NAS and...

Hi guys, new to the Forum & NAS. Just purchased a D923 with 3 drives. Drives 1 & 2 are mirrored in "Storage Pool 1" and drive 3 is a standalone in "Storage Pool 2". Everything has been migrated from my old drives to Storage Pool 1 and everything working well, but I want to perform a backup of...

I've got a few older USB 3 drives lying around but I've got issues with them connected to my DS923+. Sometimes backups through HyperBackup are extremly slow. Even if I backup very large files, I see transferspeeds at about 30MB/s or even lower at times (I only backup GB-sized files). I've got an...

Greetings, Is there anyone utilizing C2 Object Storage as a backup solution for HyperBack? Can we place our reliance on Synology with regards to protecting our information even if it's encrypted? It is indeed an enticing feature, specifically due to HB's built-in S3 capability. However, I do...

I have my Synology A backing up to Synology B using HyperBackup. This has been working well for quite some time. Recently, I got a warning that my drives on Synology B were nearly full. I went and looked, and this appears to be true, but I can't figure out why. I have a single backup job running...

Hi All, I have several Synology NAS (218+, 220+ and 1520+. I backup these to WD Elements (218 on one WD and 220 & 1520 on another WD. Everything seems to go properly via logs (ie complete backup successful). I am now getting a message I am running out of space on the WDs. My Question: How can I...

I have a strange scenario. I want to do offsite backups. I have an offsite location connected to my main location via a Draytek-based Lan-Lan VPN. The offsite location does not have a Synology NAS. My main location has a DS 1821+ with 7 4TB drives. My options are: 1) Find an inexpensive...

World Backup Day – Get Your Data in Order! ALERT – This is your reminder that it is World Backup Day and you should have your backups in order! It may seem like a slightly contrived event, but the motivations behind World Backup Day are arguably more generally positive than alot of manufacturer...

I've been using a DS218 for several years now to support backup. I've just configured a new NAS, DS220+, and I'm having problems connecting Synology Cloud Station Backup to my new NAS. I've mounted a remote folder from my NAS successfully on my PC so I know that the login is good. And I've been...

Good afternoon. The physical server backup task (via the active backup for business agent) is scheduled to run at 2:30 AM. However, about a month ago, it began to start up a few minutes earlier. The time on the NAS and the server is the same, correct. What could be the problem? This is not the...

I am attempting to restore PC1 to another PC , let’s call it PC2. PC2 has windows 11 and a MVeM2 SSD. PC1 is legacy and has standard hard drive. When I boot from the usb media that I created it doesn’t recognize my SSD hard drive. I tried loading the driver but that didn’t work. Any tips or...

Hello everyone, I have a problem with the ABB backup system on the following operation: 3 ESX 6.7 U3 A Synology 1618+ Let me explain I save 30 VMs with the NAS on my three esx but in the case where I migrate for example for maintenance a VM say from my ESX1 to ESX3 in this case the backup of...

Hi, I'm looking for a cheap solution to back up my entire NAS (25TB) to a cloud storage. So far, the only affordable solution I've found is Crashplan, but for some reason it gets a lot of hate from other users. Other options: StorJ (S3 compatible) good solution, $4 TB/month, but they do charge...

Hi, The connection to ESXi is successful. When connecting to it, active backup reports that everything is fine, including SSH. Back when the backup task runs, I get: I know it seems like a firewall issue. For testing, I disabled all firewalls, and the issue is still there. I'm out of ideas...
