Backup to DropBox
Hi, I use ReadyNAS fw 6.5.0 and wonder if DropBox sync function is one time sync or if it sync files ongoing? Thanks, Tommy
Hi TommyD,
Yes, it should be. I haven't used this for awhile now but after testing it today, it still works two-way sync continuously. Just make sure that you will change the sync settings.
Kind regards,

Hi Brian,
Thanks for your answer... but I wonder if files on the ReadyNAS share will be synced to DropBox continuously?
I want to use DropBox as my backup for the ReadyNAS.
Thanks,
Tommy

Hi BrianL,
That sounds great!
When function is enabled (and DB credentials verfied) under Cloud tab I believe there is not much settings in the ReadyNAS other than to select the share and click Sync. Or do I need to make other changes in ReadyNAS? Is there any settings in DropBox to change?
Thanks,
TommyHi TommyD,
That's what you need to do on your ReadyNAS and the settings that need to be changed or configured is on your DropBox desktop app (Software).
Kind regards,
