I want to back up (sync) specific folders on this NAS to Google Drive. The NAS is equpped with 4x4Tb drives; system firmware is current version 6.7.5. I don't find an app or method to accomplish this. Where should I be looking? Thanks in advance ... /Pete./

Hello geopeterwc,
Readynas OS 6 running on firmware version 6.7.x above includes Google Drive feature under Cloud tab wherein you can sync specific share/folder from the NAS to a specific folder from you Google Drive account. For guide please check this link here.

Note that 2-way sync isn't the same as a backup.
If files are deleted on the NAS, then the sync will delete them on the drive, making them unrecoverable. Similarly if files are deleted on the drive, the sync will delete them on the NAS.
Generally speaking, 2-way sync makes your data more vulnerable, not less.
