Title: Nas Online Backup
Post by: gcoxii on August 30, 2012, 08:56:12 AM
Just got the 320 and was thinking about backing it up to the cloud. I would be backing up 1-2 tbs and was wondering if any certain service played better with the 320 than others. Don't worry i am also keeping local and offsite hard drives just in case. I just want to be extra safe because my wife already told me she would divorce me if i lose her photos ;)

I've found the Amazon S3 functionality to be fairly lacklustre to be honest... Set up an incremental backup to run every night at midnight and have my DNS 320 set to turn off at 8am.
After the initial backup, all it seems to be doing is overwriting the same files every night, so the backup never grows as you would expect it to...

If you're expecting any other functionality apart from S3, then I'm afraid to say you've just bought the wrong NAS...
