ReadySync relocate

ReadySync relocate

Using fw 6.8.1.  When I use the ReadyCloud app on a Windows 10 pc to sync a share (folder) on the ReadyNAS to a folder on the PC, it defaults to users\users name\ReadySync.  Is there a way to locate the ReadySync folder to another location on the PC or even to an attached external drive?

 

I see that using the app's backup function will backup a folder on the PC to the NAS, but the folder is not synched so that other NAS or ReadyCloud users can make changes in the backed up folder that automatically appear on the PC.

Thanks

Re: ReadySync relocate

Hello Blueray3,

 
Unfortunately there is no way to change the location of the setting of the sync with PC process. The backup feature of the app is to backup the folder from PC to the NAS the source is the PC and the destination is the NAS. The sync direction is just one way PC to NAS. Changes made on the sources will be sync to the destination but changes made on the destination will not be synced to the the source.
