Chapter 5 Backup

Backing Up to the TeraStation

You can back up TeraStation folders to:
• A different folder on the TeraStation
• Another LinkStation on the network
• Another TeraStation on the network
• A USB drive connected on the TeraStation
* To back up the subfolders' access restriction settings, the USB drive should be formatted by ext3 or XFS.
You can also configure backup jobs from Easy Admin.
