Guidance on transition from Synology

[tonycass]

Hi All,

 

New Unraid user here - about 4 days in.  I have found the information in this community to be very helpful as I learn how to use Unraid.  The setup process, array configuration, Plex server, and basic usage has gone very smoothly.  I was using an old Synology NAS and my new server is much more powerful.

 

Where I am running into a roadblock is with cloud backup and file synchronization across different devices.  I used Cloudstation and Synology Drive to handle these tasks with my DSM device.  I have a primary Mac computer and a windows laptop that I'd like to keep certain folders in sync.  I also like to automatically upload pictures from my phone and my wife's phone.  I think NextCloud is a good choice for this but I cannot get the sync to work properly since I added the shared folders a "external" drives from my array.  (hope this makes sense).

 

I also have had ZERO luck with any cloud backup solution.  I run into a wall every time (usually with rClone).  I am able to use Backblaze B2, Open Drive, or OneDrive as the cloud source.  Is there anything as simple to use as cloud station with Unraid? 

 

Thanks for reading and feel free to answer in detail or point me to a relevent guide or walk through (I've watches A LOT of the space invader videos)

I think I have the file sync in a good place. Im using goodsync on my two computers set to sync with my NAS.  The sync preference is to always use the newest file. 
 

Can anyone suggest a solution to backup the critical fils on my Nas to a cloud provider?  I would like something that does not require the command line.
