Cloud backups for NAS - best deal at moment?
Hello all
Like many I have a NAS mine is a Duo v1 with about 800gb on it. Home movies, photos, iTunes etc. I am looking to find an unlimited online backup provider that allows NAS backups and doesn't require complex workarounds (that I am not bright enough to do).
Any suggestions please - happy to pay £50 a year or so for it
Thank you

- I think your options are very limited on the duo v1. One practical approach is to back up the 800 GB to a PC, and then install cloud backup on the PC. If you use an internal PC drive, BackBlaze and CrashPlan are both possible.
CrashPlan also allows you to back up a USB or even a networked drive from a PC (though the latter requires some setup). But last time I checked, it was not in the terms of service for BackBlaze. - Thank you. Will take a look. I have a 1tb USB drive attached to PC do could cloud that once readynas back up to it.
