3rd Party Cloud Backup - Native Support?

Hi,

I have a customer that I consult for, and they are interested in a NAS. I've leveraged ReadyNas's since the days before NetGear, love the devices.

The one BIG requirement for this solution is a cloud based backup solution. I can't - from the documentation - determine what cloud backup solution are "natively" supported by the ReadyNas OS.

What I mean by that is, I do NOT want to manually install a backup plug in or application via the OS, why? I don't want support it or have additional break/fix work with the ReadyNas OS is upgraded.

That said, I want the ReadyNas to interface with a Cloud provider (i.e. DropBox, Carbonite etc.) via the ReadyNas Interface. The functionality (that I am looking for) is simple. Maintain (in real time) all files on the ReadyNas in a cloud backup folder. Period.

Since I don't own a ReadyNas anymore, and the documentation is slim, and the forum seems to focus more on installing java apps via the OS, I thought I questions the experts to provide some direction on the "real" functionality of the NAS.

Your anticipated reply is appreciated!

Thanks!
