QNAP NAS Guide - Setting Up Your Backup Strategy with NAS-to-NAS, NAS-to-Cloud and NAS-to-USB

NAS Brands in 2021 - Which One Should You Choose? nascompares.com/2021/01/01/na...
Buying your first Network Attached Storage (NAS) device can be a remarkably daunting task! Even for the most technologically knowledgable, a NAS is a very different kind of device than most of the hardware in your environment. At its heart, it is just a computer (like most things are when you break them down to the basics) that is built for a specific task. However, there are numerous elements of a NAS (such as it always being ON, the constant remote accessibility and focus on storage primarily) that set it apart from most other devices, and this si where a lot of people get a bit intimidated by it. There is always the option of using cloud services, such as DropBox, Google Drive, OneDrive and more, but these are often paid monthly subscription services, involve your data being shared across other services and (most worrying of all) leaves your precious data in a position to be used for analytics without your knowledge OR open to hacking because of the sheer size of the target. Add to this the fact that in most cases, a severed connection to the internet means a severed connection to your data, and the appeal of moving away from 3rd party cloud and on to a NAS is pretty clear. The industry of NAS has been in constant growth for over 30 years, with big players like HP, Dell and IBM steadily losing the home and SMB market to the likes of Synology, QNAP and more. The brand diversity in the field of NAS servers has continued to grow right up until 2021, with the benefit that the way you can interact with your data, what NAS devices can do and the price point of this technology being exceedingly affordable (with fully featured solutions WITH storage media arriving as low as £200). So, today I want to talk about what NAS is, what a NAS can do, and which NAS Brand you should consider buying in 2021.

    Hi, have you any idea how I can create a backup job to backup to a NAS on another LAN. I have a NAS in my friends house and can’t work out how to set up HBS to backup to it. I am doing it manually at the moment.

    What is the best way to backup a complete RAID volume to an external USB drive? I've got a TS-212 and have a backup job configured using the Backup application, but it basically just gives me the option of backing up shares to paired directories on the USB drive. As I've got a failing HDD that I want to replace with a bigger one (doing both as part of an "Expand Capacity" step, I'd like to backup the complete RAID volume so that, in the event of something going wrong, I can just re-create the volume and reload it from the backup.

    I would like to do a simple nas backup on an external usb disk, but the external disk does not appear in the destination. Because? It is NTFS formatted. Can't this be done with a qnapp ts-x31k?

    I currently have a TS-453Be but looking to upgrade soon and really leaning towards the TVS-472XT. Any chance you would recommend the 453D over the 472XT? Secondly, I know the 472XT has been around for awhile now, do you foresee a newer model coming anytime soon?
