The downside is that it doesn’t do all the tricks that the QNAP and Synology do, such as rsync backups and serving the Logitech Squeezeboxes I have scattered around the house.Īctually, I had moved Squeezecenter serving over to an Acer Revo Nettop some time ago by installing Logitech Media Server on it. It was painless to set up and provides easy-peasy remote access to my files from any web browser or through its iOS and Android apps. When I reviewed WD’s My Book Live Duo, I really liked its WD2go remote access service. I then used the rsync network replication features on the QNAP and Synology to run daily incremental backups of the QNAP to the Synology and all was good. This program ran on my Windows work machine, doing the same frequent backups that the ReadyNAS NV had done, but now to the QNAP NAS. Since neither of these can back up to or from a networked SMB share, I had to bring 2BrightSparks’ SyncBackSE into the mix. So I wrote Smart SOHOs Don’t Do RAID and moved on to use a pair of single-drive NASes-a QNAP TS-109 Pro and Synology DS109+. This worked fine until one day the NV power supply died and I realized the folly of having only one backup device. I had a backup routine set up on the NETGEAR that backed up my main work file directory a few times during the workday and another that backed up less frequently updated files once a day. I originally relied on the very flexible backup features built into NETGEAR’s ReadyNASes using an old NV. The storage and backup strategy here at the SmallNetBuilder Labs (my humble home office) has evolved over time.
