OneDrive sync support (beta)
I'm exploring the beta support for OneDrive sync, and found several shortcomings that I'd like to see addressed in updates to the 6.9.0 firmware: 1. Shared folders that are added to my OneDrive aren't sync, while on Windows and Mac clients they are sync'd. The NAS should sync them as well. This has been committed as a 6.9.1 feature, which is great. 2. There is no multi-user support, though it really needs to be added. User A should be able to sync their OneDrive to their own share, while user B should be able to log in and establish a separate OneDrive authentication and sync relationship in their own share. 3. There is no way to ascertain sync state / progress. Somewhere there needs to be a progress indicator or "files remaining to be sync'd." Otherwise, users have no idea whether their ReadyNAS is in a clean or dirty sync state, thus no confidence of a full copy of their data. 4. You should document that a 0 means "no bandwidth restriction" rather than "0 KBps allowed". Thanks, Jeff

Dropbox Sync Won't Update
I recently upgraded my ReadyNAS to OS 6.8.0 and use a Mac to connect to the ReadyNAS. I have set up the Dropbox Sync on my ReadyNAS 526X. I have a single folder on Dropbox syncing to the corresponding folder on the ReadyNAS. I have it set up to only download cloud changes to the ReadyNAS. It works fine for the initial sync and everything in my selected Dropbox folder appears in the corresponding filder on my ReadyNAS. However, after the first sync, no further updates to sync down to the ReadyNAS. I have added new documents to the Dropbox folder and reorganized some files into new folders and none of those changes appear on the ReadyNAS. Is anyone else having this issue? Is there something I have done wrong in the setup process? Any assistance would be appreciated. Regards, David

Number of files uploaded to Amazon does NOT match number on NAS share
I just "completed" a 5 day upload(sync) with Amazon. I sync'd two shares on NAS of the following sizes: 674GB ad 26GB. upon "completion" Amazon is showing the total size of my Amazon Cloud drive to be 669.7 GB, which is less than the expected 700GB (674+26=700). I have confirmed that the sync is NOT "stalled", by adding a new file to the ReadNAS, which was subsequently auto-uploaded to amazon within a few minutes. So... According to the raw numbers I am missing 30GB, which is NOT insignificant. According to AMazon, they do not compress the files, so the data in their cloud SHOULD equal the size of the source data on my NAS How do I figure out whats missing? Any suggestions?

Best way to keep two ReadyNAS's in sync?
Hi All. Trying to find the best way to keep two ReadyNAS 10400's on a local network in sync without any intervention. Is there an app I can load on the NAS's to do this? Or will I need to run some sort of sync tool on a client?
