Connect two readynas 424
Hi, I was wondering if is possible to connect two readynas 424 remotely. We have two offices, one in Chicago and other in Bulgaria. And we want to have two readynas devices with the same data in each...

Correct.
You could also look into Resilio Connect (or similar services). They don't use cloud storage, but I don't think their are any free ones. If you go that route, you'd probably want to install the needed agents on an always-on PC at both sites that have the local NAS data volume mounted to a drive letter.
Note I haven't used these myself. I do use Resilio Sync, and it often does run into some problems - mainly files that I delete on one device will often come back.

Thanks StephenB for the help! I don't want to just back up the data. I want the two devices to be like one, but fiscally in two separate continents ( Synchronize them). The devices will have identical data(same file on two places), but stored separately. If I go to the Bidirectional sync I will have to by storage in the cloud services like google drive, because I need few terabytes of space.
