Issues with Rsync on a NAS
- by Daniel Fischer
I'm trying to rsync a few external hard drives over to my new Nas DS412+ but I'm noticing it's stupid slow. I'm trying it via mounting the backup folder via afb on a Mac.
I was told this may be the wrong way to do it. I recently just turned on "network backup" on the Synology and am now running rsync over ssh like:
rsync -ar --progress . admin@localip:/backup/path
Is this the right way to do it now? Will it be faster? Is there something else I can do to make it faster?
Edit: I'm getting a ton of: "failed to set permissions" "failed to set times" now that I run it. What do I do?
