Backup to a NAS
Monument 2 now supports creating a backup to an existing NAS drive. All of the content stored on the primary drive is synced to the target folder on the NAS.
To start with, please make sure SMB or SFTP service is running on your NAS device.
Note: If the connection cannot be established to your NAS, please try enabling SMB 3.0 protocol on your NAS device.
