Both sites have 50Mbps down / 20Mbps Internet connection, so effectively a 20Mbps pipe, though I'd consider limiting replication traffic during daytime hours.

My main location has an RT2600ac, the second site has an MR2200ac. I will work from both locations, so ideally I would like to upload data in each location and let the NASes handle the syncing. Most of my shares are relatively static, with a couple that I would ideally like to have two-way syncing for. I am thinking about moving to a setup with a DS918+ in each location, using a better synchronization method for the two DS918s, and use the offsite DS718+ NAS for backup. I have 7 shares, of which 4 are effectively archive/read-only, and user home folders are in use heavily on the main NAS.ĭue to a change in my working environment, I now have a requirement to run a NAS in two locations. Roughly 20TB of data, of which less than 50GB changes from month to month. My usage is mainly storage and some VMs/docker apps, Plex, with probably an 80% read / 20% write ratio. This has worked flawlessly since inception. My current NAS setup is a DS918+ which runs a weekly Shared Folder Sync to a second DS918+ unit at the same location, and an offsite backup performed monthly to a DS718+.
