Can I Backup Stora to Stora

[psteel]

Hi

I have 2 storas on the same network. Is it possible to backup 1 stora device to the other using desktop mirror. I have tried setting up the folder paths and the destination stora copies the folders over from the source, but the folders are empty and the log comes up with messages such as:

02:01 copyFolderToServer failed for: PHOTO-HOME-MUSI\MyLibrary\Music. Backed Up
02:01 Backing up \\PHOTO-HOME-MUSI\MyLibrary\MusicVideos. Backed Up
02:01 building file list ...
02:01 sent 21 bytes  received 20 bytes  82.00 bytes/sec
02:01 total size is 0  speedup is 0.00
02:01 copyFolderToServer failed for: PHOTO-HOME-MUSI\MyLibrary\MusicVideos. Backed Up

Hi @psteel,

Backing up the files from one Stora to another through the Desktop Mirror feature will not work due to authentication issues. However, it can be done by manually transferring the files.

I use free file sync for the PC. It works very well.
