It can only be done in an RSYNC backup. To fool the NAS into using RSYNC between two local shares, create a backup that uses IP 127.1.1.1 (known as the universal loopback address) as the "external" source and the eSATA share as the local destination. Make sure RSYNC is enabled on both in the share settings, and that WRITE is enabled at least on the destination. Once you have created the job, go to the job Settings (wheel icon at the right of the job listing) and on the Advanced tab you can specify file and folder exclusions.
