Hi, wanting to move my 3rd location storage from in the cloud at C2 to my own hardware at a relatives house. The only requirement is that it works with Synology hyper backup. Any suggestions?

    Thanks. I’ve watched some Synology reviews and everyone says to stay away from the less expensive Synology products due to their lack of expandability, and weaker cpu and ram. Not sure that applies to me though, if I’m just after Hyper Backup… I am nervous about placing an order and finding that some hardware requirements aren’t met or something.

      Really all you’re needing is a network interface to a disk. Nothing more. If you’re comfortable running a headless device, go for that and ignore Synology as the majority of the features aren’t even needed in this case. Hyper Backup supports rsync destinations on remote hosts, and that sounds like all you want.
