Hi Guys,

Have a quick question on NSync with the N7700.

Its always worked for me between two N7700's but just very slow... because it does a brand new Nsync each time, and not incremental.
If I have a 1.5TB folder... it takes 1.5TB each time. Takes forever,,, but it does do a 1:1 backup... and any deleted folders from Source.. get deleted on Target.... a true back up.. all good

Now with the new firmware they have incremental, as a feature for Nsync now.

?

How does this work... If I have files A-B-C on the Source and then A-B-C on the target... and its been synced already in the old method ('synchronize') --- then the 2x N7700's are current

NOw if i switch to incremental feature to save me time in backing up, just looking for the changed files...

and i know have A-B-C-D on the Source... it will push JUST the D file to target ? and save me time...

ok...

but if i delete one file from the Source... say file A ... then im left with B-C-D on the source.. and when it does incremental backup to the target N7700... the target does NOT get file A deleted?
so its not a 1:1 backup?

im confused.. sorry.. it seems that in incremental... the target server does not get any files deleted or replaced.. just added two... that could be a big mess.

what do you guys think?
sorry if this is convoluted
