Recover Data To A Network-Attached Device - NETGEAR RNDU4000-100NAS Software Manual

Before trusting your backup job to a schedule, it is a good practice to manually perform
the backup to make sure that access to the remote backup source or destination is
granted, and that the backup job can be done within the backup frequency you selected.
You can do this after you save the backup job.

Recover Data to a Network-Attached Device

You can use FrontView to restore data that you previously backed up to your ReadyNAS
device to another network-attached device. Before you can recover data, you must first back
it up.
Figure 9 illustrates this process.

WARNING!
Although this is a recovery procedure, your ReadyNAS system
treats it like a backup job. This means that you use FrontView
screens labeled backup and you reverse the source and
destination systems you used when you backed up the data that
you are recovering.
Backup and recovery jobs ReadyNAS Vault and Time Machine require different procedures.
