Time Machine Backups to Symbology? - Enquiries - 02-28-2020

After reading you "Guide to Synology with Time Machine," I was left uncertain whether or how it is possible to back up multiple Macs on a network to the Synology.

- Can all the Macs back up to the same folder?

- Must each Mac back up to its own folder?

- Is any unique configuration required on each individual Mac or are they all configured alike (to access the storage folder(s)?

You will be able to create separate shared folders for each MAC to run a backup. So they don't overwrite each other.It is very easy to do, just like right-click and a new folder.I hope this helps.
