* Deselecting QuDedup pops up a warning "This will affect other existing job policies and options, and settings." but does not tell which ones. * Is or isn't QuDedup supported on my ARM-based TS-228A? Marketing blurb says no, but HBS offers it anyway. * What can I write in the "Included/Excluded File Types - Other" field? A regex? Which syntax? A list of extensions? Separated by what? Still it has a lot of options whose meaning is not at all clear, for example: It is easy enough to click through in order to create a backup job that will sort of work. In fact, it is rather simplistic as backup solutions come. Alas, none of these is available for QNAP, so I am forced to use HBS. I have twenty-five years of experience with various backup solutions, starting with good old Unix dump and tar (when the 't' still meant 'tape'), continuing through Amanda, BackupExec and NTBackup, and presently Bacula/Bareos and Veeam. Stiltzkin: I know how backup works and what does or doesn't constitute a proper backup. While at it, i also suggest you read this in regards to what constitutes as an acceptable backup. This is how i first learned how to use HBS trial and error. If it backups and restores as you imagined it should, ONLY THEN is it okay to use for production. My tip for using HBS is, once you watch the youtube and check the description of the settings, and configure a backup setting, to FIRST TEST on a SAMPLE DATA (doesn't have to be much files, just a few will do) how it does that backup job you created. backing up via rtrr one way sync, and restoring has worked fine for me for many years. I've been using HBS as my backup app from main nas to backup nas. Or if you use the forum search there will be mention of what it does. and if still unsure, there is the documentation that further goes into detail. The HBS options there are "i" which you hover mouse over which explains what those settings are. check the youtube videos that will walk you through it. although it's understandable for new users who are not familiar with it.
