Amazon - Snapshots or full data?
Hi All, I recently turned on Amazon Cloud on my RN104 running 6.6.1. So far everything seems to be working corrently, though I aside from a cursory glance at the folder structure on Amazon I have no idea how much data has moved. I expect the total for the selected shares to be over 700GB, but amazon is not showing any size yet. Maybe once the transfer is done it will show? Anyway, I'm now concerned about Amazon being a two-way sync. Not so much that I would delete something on Amazon, but what if something breaks at amaazon and my files get deleted? or if amazon is hacked and my files get deleted? My understanding that in this siutation the sync would cause my local files on NAS to also get deleted. (please correct me if I'm wrong) Which brings to my real question. I admittedly do not fully understand snapshots. But am now wondering if instead of replicating the actual data to amazon, should I just be replicating the snapshots instead? Or both? I would sleep easier if netgear just made an option to set the amazon sync as one-way or two-way my choice.3.6KViews0likes6Comments
Sync Home Folder in ReadyCloud Desktop App
I have a ReadyNAS 202 running OS 6.5.1 and am using the ReadyCloud Desktop Client version 1.3 for OS X (Mac). I have created a folder in my private Home Directory that I would like to sync to my Mac but when I look at the Desktop Client, I do not see the Home folder and obvisously, not the subfolders in the Home folder. If I log in to ReadyCloud via the Web I see the Home folder and the subfolders in it. The ID I am using is the Administrator ID I created when I set up the ReadyNAS. I'm thinking there has to be a way to see the Home Folder in the ReadyNAS Client. Am I missing something? Thanks, David5.1KViews0likes13Commentsremove all traces of readycloud desktop app
I like many others am having problems syncing using the ReadyCloud desktop app. I would like to uninstall the app and remove all traces, including saved user settings, from my PC in order to try a truly fresh install. When I reinstal it currently, it automatically logs me in and loads my ReadyNAS. I do not want it to do this. I want it to be like it's never been on my computer before. I've deleted all the folders in my windows user folder and i've deleted all folders and files from programs(x86) folder. This has not worked. Is there a "removal tool" for the app like there is for other programs for complete removal? Please help if you can. After hours and hours of trying all the other sync "solutions" in all the other posts, I'd like to try this one and hope it works.3.8KViews0likes3Comments
