In the main menu, you can enable the following functions:

  1. Two-way sync: Keeps data synchronized between ASUS WebStorage > "MySyncFolder" and ASUSTOR NAS > "MySyncFolder".
  2. Download the changes made in the cloud only: Backs up data stored in ASUS WebStorage > "Shared by me" and "Shared with me" to ASUSTOR NAS > "Collaboration Folder".
  3. Upload the changes made on NAS only: Backs up data stored in ASUSTOR NAS > [NAS model name folder] to ASUS WebStorage > "Backup" > "Personal device" > "NAS model name folder".EN_NAS1__1_.png

 

  • Two-way sync synchronizes the data between ASUS WebStorage > [MySyncFolder] and ASUSTOR NAS > [MySyncFolder], so if you add or delete a file from one side, it will also be added or deleted on the other side.
