Best practice for configuring my NAS
Hi Experts, Hope you can assist me, or tell me I am on the right/wrong track. I guess I am after how other people user their NAS devices for reference. Sorry in advance for the long post. Summar...
Certainly your VMs will want iSCSI.
I don't use the readynas app on the PC (its backup is limited to specific folders). Though I think the reason for the SERVER- convention is just to allow multiple PCs to be backed up.
Another option for manual sync is to use a Robocopy batch file script on the PC.
>>>I am fine to work off the NAS or also fine to work locally and backup to the nas.
We do some of both. A lot of documents are only on the NAS. Though generally new documents begin life on a local PC. My work stuff is kept on my work laptop.
