DESCRIPTION
The NAS maintains the files that have been included in your backups. However to save
hard disk space, you can choose to delete files that have been included in previous
backups.
• Select Keep All Old Backup files to store all files that have been included in
previous backups.
• If you want to store a certain number of backup files, select Keep Only the last n
backup files (1-30). Enter a value (n) from 1 to 30 to specify how many backups
the NAS stores. All backup files older than the last one are deleted. You will not be
able to recover files that existed (only) in those previous backups. Select this if
backup space is limited and recovery of old files is not important.
• If you want to store all backups for a certain time period, select Keep Backups for
n day(s)(1-3650). Enter a value (n) from 1 to 3650 to specify how many days the
NAS stores all backup files. After this day has expired, all backup files will be
deleted.
