Hi NasCompares Team,
Thanks for all of the great content provided, I've been following along for a while, even back in the SPAN days.
I have a question I hope you can help with. I've recently replaced a very old QNAP device at a customer site with a Synology DS1522+. The backup strategy is; that the 1522+ backs up using Hyper Backup to another Synology (1520+) located in a different building. The 1520+ then backs up to Backblaze B2 nightly, I'm backing up the backup to the cloud. Thankfully, I've not had to restore anything from BB yet, we're using snapshots for small restores. My question is, instead of backing up the backup files to B2, should I be running a secondary backup job on the 1522+ instead? I think for de-duplication purposes and granular restores, it might make more sense. What do you think?
Thank you again for providing this service.
Best regards,
Danny
