Change to RSync

On both ReadyNAS devices: Services > Standard File Protocols, go to RSYNC, check box and hit apply

Then go to Shares > click on the RSYNC for the share you want, create a username/password for use on RSYNC

Now on the destination device:

Backup > Add a new Backup Job

Step 1: "Remote: rsync server", host = ip address of readynas, set login and password
Step 2: Destination: share on the readynas
Step 3: Backup schedule, do not need to setup
Step 4:shouldn't need to modify anything

I think I wasn't clear enough. I have done a full backup of two shares on my readynas to a USB Drive attached to the front port of the readynas. Now instead of doing a full copy, I want to just backup changes to the same USB Drive, as this is much faster.

You can still use rsync - this is basically what I'm doing.

As a source specify your volume c.

As a destination select the USB drive.

In the options below make sure to specify a full-backup only the first time.
