Looking for a File transfer software

Hi

I have a RN104 NAS.

And a USB external disk connected to my nas.

On that usb drive, I have a complete backup of my nas data.

If I dont want to login to a windows computer, and use drag and drop via windows file explorer.

 

Maybe there is some file transfer software to install to windows and manage it from there?

Or how do you do this type of things if you want to restore a backup?

 

What can I use?

    You could use something like freefilesync or teracopy.

     

    Not sure how you are backing up the NAS, but it is also possible to restore if using a NAS backup job.

    Much to vague. What exactly you want to achieve? Yet another different file transfer software won't bring you forward.

     

    To restore a few select files from the backup to the NAS volume using drag and drop (== copy) is a valid process.
