Not questions, just FYI for other users...
Just purchased the F2-210 to replace a NAS that died. Overall, so far, seems like a solid product.
In my home, I run an old Win2k server for a couple things, including backup for the NAS. We store movies, music, and pictures on the NAS, as well as a backups for a couple home computers.
All that data is then backed-up weekly to the server.
The previous NAS we used allowed 'Nsync' via FTP, so had Filezilla daemon on the server and that whole process worked reliably.
Thank goodness, cause when that previous NAS died, I couldn't access the data (RAID 0), so that backup location on the server was critical.
With this F2-210, Nsync isn't available, so setup Rsync.
I installed DeltaCopy on the server. It came with a 'Backup' location defined. I setup a new 'Rsync-bak' profile.
When I tried to setup Rsync on the TNAS, it did not allow me to actually enter a remote path, it just offered two pre-defined selections:
'Drive' and 'backup'. Neither worked, giving me target errors. It did not give me the 'Rsync-bak' option I setup on DeltaServer.
I finally realized that it seemed to find 'backup' as a predefined profile on DeltaServer, but the case was different; 'Backup' on DeltaCopy and 'backup' in the TNAS selection. I changed the profile on DeltaServer to 'backup' and the process then worked as expected.
I don't know where the flaw is - DeltaCopy reporting it incorrectly, TNAS seeing it incorrectly, or maybe there's no link at all... But once I ensured the profile on DeltaCopy matched the predefined option TNAS was looking for exactly - Case Matters! - it all worked great on a manual start.
So now will see if it kicks-off reliably on schedule.
I also have Plex setup on the new NAS, replacing Plex Server that ran on an old Mac Mini. So far, that works very well too.
