![]() ![]() It's proven reliable, efficient, and effective at recovering individual files and doing bare-metal restores on new machines when prior machines bite the dust. We've used it to backup around 20 PCs for a few years. Side note: If Synology Active Backup ever comes to macOS, I'd HIGHLY recommend it. Hyper Backup then makes backups as needed of the Resilio Sync folders. I supplement this by synchronizing my specific working directories on macOS with Resilio Sync on the NAS. I still use Time Machine myself, but it's been so unreliable I'm all but abandoned it. it's an all-or-nothing recovery of all the Synology Drive database. It's because Synology Drive has a database that it builds to track files and changes and it can't recover files granularly. ![]() This is a royal pain, in that I no longer can recover a single file from Hyper Backup and rely on Drive to play nicely. If a shared folder is included in Synology Drive, then I'm forced to restore the entire backup directory of EVERY SHARED FOLDER that is included in Drive. My Reason: if and when I want to recover data, I use Hyper Backup. Synology Drive has its uses, but I use it for as few files as possible - only a handful of files that multiple people MUST access simultaneously.
