destination DiskStation (or "server") over the network. Shared Folder Sync backup tasks can be viewed and

Back up DiskStation Data with Time Backup
Synology Time Backup is a quick and flexible way to back up and restore shared folders on DiskStation. You can
back up the data locally onto another volume, or onto an external hard disk. You can set up multiple tasks and
create more than one version for each task.
Time Backup features snapshot function. When creating a version, the system will take a snapshot and capture
the condition of the data within the specified moment. The system will create a version entry within seconds. You
can access the newly created version and edit the files you've just backed up with no time delay.
Time Backup can be installed by going to Main Menu > Package Center.
