This video goes over how to setup a 3-2-1 backup solution for an office file server on Synology NAS. This uses snapshot replication to sync files from one onsite NAS to another, then uses hyper-backup to backup the data offsite. This is crucial for making sure that your data stays backed up and accessible, no matter what happens.
