How to change Drive Backup destination folder

[Imcon]

I want to backup a folder from a PC to my NAS. I can not used Active Backup for this (actually I use it but it create a huge files not possible to do additional backup to a Cloud service) and therefore I wonder how to backup the folder.
The solution is to sync the folder with a folder in my NAS and then the NAS can do different backup strategies according to my need.

How to sync a folder to the NAS (with a native component)? I thought that Drive Backup can be used - it provide scheduled backup and it is one way only. Unfortunately for some reason there is no way how to set the destination folder. Is there another way how to sync/backup PC folder/s with the Syno native components?

Is the Destination folder really fixed for the Derive Backup or is it possible to change it?

Do you mean that there's no way to set the Drive Backup destination folder because it ends up as /home/Drive/Backup/<device folder>?

Why is this a problem?

From a quick look in the Drive client on Mac it seems that there can a different connection for Backup vs Drive tasks, so you could use a second DSM account.

There's also the possibility to have your main Drive two-way sync task working with a subfolder that doesn't encompass Backup and Moments folders, e.g. /home/Drive/myDrive. I have five sync tasks for Drive:

1. main 2-way task to /home/Drive/myDrive
2. photo upload 1-way task to /home/Drive/Moments/Upload/<mac name>
3. access to lesser used public cloud data from Drive ShareSync to /home/Drive/Cloud Drives
4. a shared team folder
5. shared with me
