![]() ![]() You can enable automatic archiving where files in certain places if not accessed for a few months can be moved to different folders like Archive. Qnap also offers automation tools for your folders and files. This way everything is kept under one umbrella and there are no changes for end-users. You can then see this data in a regular way via SMB/NFS/AFP (as a network drive next to your C: or D: drive). It will then appear as a “volume” on your NAS. You can mount a cloud storage space on BackBlaze or another provider to your Qnap. ![]() I have copied some more info about this from Qnap bellow. There is the software they offer called Hybrid mount. ![]() Yes, Synology will not allow a solution like this and you will need to consider Qnap. Again, if you’ve encountered this kind of problems with companies of our size and could give me hints of where to start looking or predicted costs, this would be really appreciated. Also, we might switch from our 5 NASes to a real file server with close to ~30 disks (given our current consumption) to make the whole backuping/archiving process simpler and usable with existing softwares. I was wondering if you had to set-up this kind of system at some point, and what kind of tools you used. I’ve been looking for a tool/suite of tools to do this and stumbled upon Media Asset Managements systems, without finding the solution fitting our needs. An option is to postpone the problem to a later date and simply buy 12x16TB disks, but this will likely only be viable for about 1 to 1.5 years of data production. We need to get additional storage capacity, and are thinking about using a mixed model of production data and archived projects, so we can store archives of older projects only on the backblaze cloud (not replicated on our local nases, unless the retrieval of a single project is required for any reason) plus ongoing production and projects which would them be stored on our nases, and also backed-up (although not archived) on backblaze. At the moment, all this data is only stored locally, on these nases, backed up to Backblaze cloud storage using the Hybrid Backup utility, each to its own bucket. ![]()
