#Backup qnap to external usb drive how to
This utility covered all my needs quite well and so below I will explain how to use it with an external USB device and a QNAP NAS server. In the past I have found it unreliable and I also preferred the manual control of using the Linux command line.įortunately the QNAP server comes with the handy command known as rsync. One of the problems though was trying to work out an easy away to transfer the 750 GB of data from the USB device over to the NAS server without using the QNAP Backup feature. This is something I would recommend to everyone do, even those with NAS devices which run with multiple drives. Lucky I had all the QNAP data stored on a secondary, dumb USB hard drive so no data was lost. Eventually I gave up and restarted from scratch. No amount of partition fixing or recovering would enable it to mount.
For some reason the file partition holding all the data became so corrupt that the QNAP firmware would refuse to even mount the drive. Recently I was forced to format my QNAP TS-109 and reinstall the firmware. Or help me out by engaging with any advertisers that you find interesting
