Attempting to 'Mirror' Entire C: Drive
I'd like to 'mirror' the entire C: drive from a Pro6 to an Ultra6, however nothing I've read (or found on the web) makes it even sound like a possibility. Surely someone has done this before and ca...
the short answer is you can't.
the long answer is, on the pro, you can select drive c as the source, and the ultra as the destination, but this will put pro6/c in a *share folder* on ultra6. ie pro/c to ultra/backup/c
there is no supported way to go from /c to /c, which is unfortunate because I'm sure alot of people would want that (including myself).
you can create multiple share to share jobs, ie /media to ultra6/media
obviously, all backup jobs are one way, there is no 'syncronization' or actual mirroring changes from both sides to the other.
if your devices are in different locations, you should look at readynas replicate, whic is a paid addon from netgear, which makes remote backups much simpler (but not very cheap).
if you are are looking for syncronization between devices, you can check out the egnyte local cloud product and see if it will work for you, however its not free and has a monthly service fee and other limitations.
