Backing Up Your Life is THIS Easy

Huh, so I will need a friend? Does Synology sell those too?

[larrylentini]

He just said 56TB and my first thought was "that's not very much". I think I've been watching too much LTT...

[simonapederseneToro]

Synology: hi Linus, You got a Cat?
Linus: Yeah.. why?
Synology: Cat sells. For the video, please bring a cat.

I bought the same NAS because of this video. For Jake's credentials, there is actually an easier way. He can create a user for you on his NAS with permissions only for the shared folder where you are going to upload your offsite backup. By doing so, not only you don't need to remote connect to enter the password, but Jake can also setup a storage quota for your user in case he wants to control that.

The product also comes with a box that the cats just can’t deny

Linus I have to hand it to you, the format and ease of watching while learning something new is hard to do correctly - 5 stars for doing such a great job!

[tademak]

The fact that Lunis still has his wii u plugged in in 2019 makes me smile

[colemanhoyt]

It is funny how they're saying how cheap this is when the devices cost so much, but I think there may be an underlying (albeit flawed) assumption that you already have many other uses for a NAS. A powerful NAS doesn't just solve one thing, it solves a lot of things, and that's where the savings can come in.

This is actually a nice and informational sponsored video. Kudos for getting the NAS server up and running!

[Shadow-ighf]

Just figured out why Linus likes and owns always land on their feet.

[daviddenoncourt]

Linus being more polite to his cat than most people he interacts with...

[kevhill]

"on the cheap" says the guy as he installs an
almost $3k usd device.

[DJJOOLZDE]

This was an easy to follow, simple, 162-Step guide to backing up your data. Bravo gentlemen :)

[StarWarsFU]

Linus is explaining stuff

Cat does anything

Cameraman: ooohh cat!

[mpccenturion]

Thank you Linus. I had started using Raid 0 -- 15 yrs ago. And it rescued my bacon on 2 major occasions. The NAS made sense to me, but Your VID sold me and the Purse. Cheers!

Linus: "Excuse me, sir a cat




Me: "This is the way."
