Synology

This is a place for all topics regarding Synology hard- and software - especially (but not limited to) their NAS devices.

Just one thing: Let’s please be pleasant to each other and respect that people have different experience levels. Some are pros, some are noobs, yet everybody may have good ideas or interesting questions to ask and comments to make, and all of these shall be heard and appreciated. ❤️

And since we know from TV that all IT nerds 🤓 are h4xx0rs and wear hoodies all the time (if not even ski masks) in front of their computers, I chose an appropriate banner image (image credit).

Backing up as a drop-in replacement in case of failure? (self.synology)

Hey all,

I have a DS1821+ at home and have just bought a DS723+ with suitably sized disks and an equivalent amount of RAM to store at my parents' house as a complete off-site backup. What I'd really like (and the reason for buying the extra RAM) is a drop-in replacement in case of full failure of the 1821. Ie. Drive to my parents', grab the 723, take it home, plug it in and away we go.

I'm thinking the best way to achieve this would be through a combination of HyperBackup for backing up just the apps (most importantly Docker), and Snapshot Replication for everything else. Does that sound accurate or is there something I'm missing?

Cheers everyone!
