Hi. I have a Hyper Backup rsync copy (single-version) task, which is stuck. By stuck I mean that it shows progress 11% and doesn't move anymore. The remote is online. Worse ... cancelling the task is the only way out, but this gets stuck as well, meaning Cancelling is shown for one day now...

While using Cloud Sync to backup Google Drive it seems to be picking up the older “My Drive” volume fine. There seems to be a problem with Cloud Sync seeing the new “Computers” volume that Google forced on us last year. This is showing up on my computer as a G drive and shows up when I open...

Morning! I am looking to backup my parents data for them, from their house to my NAS to my C2Storage. I thought about installing the drive client on their laptops and giving them a folder to drag and drop and then let the programs do the rest but that would mean I have to expose my NAS to the...

I recently upgraded my DS416play from DSM 6 to DSM 7, and one of the enforced changes is that it has installed Synology Photos. This seems to have had the knock-on effect that my 'photo' shared location which contains approx 727GB of assorted photo related material (including camera RAWs...

HUGE apologies if anything below is incorrect. I am trying to make sure I’ve understood basic backup knowledge on Hyper Backup rotation versions and snapshots. I don’t want to find I’ve made a mistake months or years down the line! And, as after several days, I couldn’t find a guide that gives...

DSM 7.x. I don't see any way to schedule a local, automatic configuration backup. I can schedule backup to my Synology account, but don't see any option for local backup other than manual export. Is there really no way to do a scheduled configuration backup locally? I really don't want my DS...

Hello. I am wondering if there is a way to remove a Time Machine backup and force a completely new backup. I have 2 different MacBook Pros set up to use my DS218 for the Time Machine backups. Time Machine 2 is showing me 726GB in Storage Analyzer, but I don't under stand why it is so high...

Good evening, I am an old Qnap user and I was victim of a Ramsonware ech0raix attack that encrypted all my nas data. Fortunately I had an external drive where I mirrored the data on a weekly basis. The climax was that the automatic backup I was doing on this disk was activated after the data...

folks, i am using AOMEI BackUpper on several Win10 PCs to backup to encrypted shared folder under DSM7 on a DS418. The backups are scheduled under AOMEI. What bothers me is that the upon completion, the encrypted folder remains 'mounted' - i have not set up remote access to the DS418 as yet or...

When using the Hyper Backup app (DSM7.01) from a Synology NAS (DS220J) to a NAS (DS420J), both on the same home LAN, the network data rates are around 10 to 30 MB/s, well below the 1Gb Network capacity of the system. I'm seeing at best about 27 MB/s of backup data passing over the LAN...
