Use of Rsync with local shares
I would like to be able to choose to use rsync or cp depending a checkbox. CP to me is worthless. Model: ReadyNAS Ultra 4 Plus [X-RAID2] Firmware: RAIDiator 4.2.19

the destination will be the usb_1
It seems silly to me to have to setup the rsync service to use something that is already native on the OS. To me data synchronization should be painless. Copying your dataset every time you run a backup is a resource waste. When you could just copy/remove the changes of the share. Also the current backup doesn't do removes from the share it will just copy what exists and wont remove from the DEST location.
