Thanks! I will try it
I have another futher problem is that everytime I start the TNAS mobile app on my iPhone, it rescan the 12K photos again checking if they are transferred, practically blocking the iPhone for some minutes. I suggest adding some kind of local db to mark the photos already uploaded as so.
On the other hand, also accessing the "Album Backup" from my Mac (or Windows) freeze also the explorer (probably also because the OS tries to get the details of the files, kind and even small thumbnails of each one)
If I build a small bash script to segment the files by date, would it affect the photo backup and it will try to upload all the files again?

Thanks again and regards.

We are trying to implement the function of speeding up comparison through the local database on the mobile app.
Regarding the 'Album Backup' you mentioned accessing from Mac/Windows, does it refer to accessing the backup directory backed up to NAS via network sharing?
If images are divided into multiple subdirectories, they will be backed up again after re-comparison.

Dear "TMZethar"
Yes, I was referring accessing the Folder through SMB on my Mac to find/sort the photos. Also hoping to sort them in folders, but I saw on your next reply that it would be useless, so I will skip that for the time being.
Thanks
