But you have to purchase different NAS set. If the value of data is really high (security reason), try High Availability (NAS cluster). This Cloud sync is not “valid” backup approach as you need for 1TB file size. What is the main point - during the single file syncing you can’t sync another - then abnormal waiting time (must calculate bottleneck: upload speed of second side for sync) can’t support a collaboration from syncing point of view- primary target of the Cloud File syncing. It doesn’t matter (if yes or no) the 10GB file syncyng is killing for all WAN users with common internet speed (download) up to 50Mbps (nominal speed, not real). because it is still in same 'risk location'. 'If my house is robbed and the NAS is stolen or if the house burns down taking my NAS with it, I want to have as much video of the incident as possible.' Re security reasons: Have you got both NAS in same house (same place or in different rooms)?This consideration is based on your description (usage of same switch). but life is like boxed chocolate, then you have to check setup of your architecture boundaries (HDD performance, NAS compression/encryption, NAS Eth. Then 8 388 608 Mb / 1300Mbps = 1,8 hour of “theoretical” clean file replication speed is minimum possible time consuption for this task + compression + encryption. I am right?ġTB file x 8bits x 1048576 (Tb to Mb) = 8 388 608 Mbįast HDD can perform at 1300Mbps in the DS213+ (for both 1G Eth ports by link aggregatetion) Your connection architecture between two NAS is based on LAN connection. direct file transfer (File station, mounted Shared Net disk)Ĭloud station is not prepared for such big file 'replication'.īigger files I have in LUNs, but there is iSCSI protocol, that is faster than SMB(Win) or https (cloud station), then again Cloud station is not right approach.

Then this is not right approach to transfer large files to NAS by Cloud Station. Re file size limitations: There is an upper limit on the file size however, 10GB per file. I also don't care about versions just due to this being the last line of defense in my backup strategy and the sizes being too large for my old NAS which only has 2 - 4TB drives. The downside for HB in this folder is that I won't have new computer images every day or even every week so I don't have a schedule that I can set to reliably run when I put a new image in the folder without wasting a lot of resources. Network shouldn't be an issue since the DS1019+ is running 2-GB bonded network connection and is on the same switch as the DS213+ right now. Likely because I have compression and encryption turned on. 12 hours so far and it's only 34% complete. I fell back to trying hyperbackup for the PCBackups folder last night but it runs very slow. But I know this to not be the case so it has me a bit concerned that something vital may not get synced. Right now I can only assume all files are successfully syncing since that is what it is reporting. The concern I have is more what the limit is so I can make an informed decision on using Cloud Station. If my house is robbed and the NAS is stolen or if the house burns down taking my NAS with it, I want to have as much video of the incident as possible. The surveillance folder needs to be as close to real time as possible. I've also set this up twice (deleting the database in between) to ensure it wasn't likely a fluke. I've verified that my ShareSync folder filesize limits are set to 0 (unlimited) and I've found nothing that suggests there is a limit in size but there apparently is. No errors are reported and the system reports everything is in sync which is concerning as well. It will sync over the smaller files but ignores the main file which is just over 1TB in size.

The ' PCBackup' folder contains a system image of my main PC and this is where I run into problems. I have no apparent issues with the ' Surveillance' folder contents. ' Surveillance' and ' PCBackup', both of which are self explanatory for the contents. There are two folders I've set up for syncs. I had previously used Cloud Sync with an AWS S3 bucket and it works fine but figured if I could eliminate the bucket fees, I'd be better off in the long term. I bought a DS1019+ and am using my old DS213+ to have a remote copy of certain files/folders for redundancy.

What is the file size limit for Cloud Station? I can't get a file that is just over 1TB is size to move across between Cloud Station Server and Cloud Station ShareSync.
