File Backup

There are a number of ways to back up your data to your N199.

Nsync

You can backup a share folder to

another N199 (Nsync Target) or any
FTP server for safe keeping as long
as you have appropriate access right

on that target. When using Nsync
between two N199s, you have the

option to transmit files securely
between two N199s.

If the files on your N199 are lost for

any reason, you can restore those
files from the target N199. To backup files regularly, you can set up a scheduled
task to run only once, daily, weekly, or monthly. You can also limit the bandwidth

of your Nsync tasks, so other users on the network can share the bandwidth
equally.
