Using a Drobo as backup for Synology? - Enquiries - 02-28-2020

Hello,

I recently migrated from a Drobo 5N to a Synology ds918+. I was hoping to re-purpose the drobo into a purely back-up solution for the synology but I cannot find a solution out there. Has no one done this? Is it impossible?

Thank you,

In order to be able to backup your NAS on Drobo, you would need RSYNC service available. But thee is no direct way to do it.This is as close you can get: https://www.reddit.com/r/drobo/comments/f56m2j/how_do_i_enable_rsync_on_a_drobo_nas_5n2/I hope this helps.
