File Backup

There are a number of ways to back up your data to your N299.

Nsync

You can backup a share folder to
another N299 (Nsync Target) or any
FTP server for safe keeping as long

as you have appropriate access right
on that target. When using Nsync

between two N299s, you have the
option to transmit files securely

between two N299s.

If the files on your N299 are lost for
any reason, you can restore those
files from the target N299. To backup files regularly, you can set up a scheduled

task to run only once, daily, weekly, or monthly. You can also limit the bandwidth
of your Nsync tasks, so other users on the network can share the bandwidth

equally.

Under the Storage menu, click Nsync and the Nsync window appears. Below is
