About:
Synology Cloud Station Backup enables continuous, real-time backup of designated folders from your computer to a Synology NAS. It provides versioning capabilities, allowing you to restore files to previous states in case of accidental deletion or corruption. The solution ensures data is securely stored on your private network storage, offering a reliable disaster recovery solution for personal and business data.
Key Features:
  • Real-time automatic file synchronization
  • Multi-version file restoration
  • Bandwidth management and scheduling
  • Selective folder backup
Use Cases:
  • Protecting critical work documents from hardware failure
  • Maintaining a history of project files for version recovery
  • Centralizing backups for multiple computers in a network
Alternatives:
  • Time Machine – Native macOS backup, but limited to local drives without NAS integration
  • Dropbox – Cloud storage sync, but relies on public cloud infrastructure rather than private NAS
