To safeguard against potential downtime and configuration headaches in the event of drive failure, it's highly recommended to implement RAID protection on your Synology DS220+. This ensures that your data remains accessible and your system stays operational even if one drive fails. Additionally, for system and app backups, Hyper Backup remains an excellent choice. You can configure it to regularly back up your DS220+ to a USB drive that's always connected or to another NAS, even if it's a different brand or model, such as a new BeeStation or DS120j. This setup provides comprehensive protection for your data and system configuration, minimizing the risk of data loss and simplifying the recovery process in case of any unforeseen issues.
