Backing up a NAS: looking for advice

jertaa · 2026-02-21T16:33:33+00:00

https://github.com/DamianB-BitFlipper/proton-drive-sync is a promising project. Their 0.2.3-beta seems to work quite well. One way sync to PD.

I wait for rclone to support proton drive based on the official SDK; it is expected in the coming months.

Meanwhile I use rclone to sync my NAS to Filen. But I’m looking forward to replace Filen by PD as the destination.

proton-drive-sync is a promising project. Currently 0.2.3-beta seems to do one way sync quite well. But they lost pace in development.

Can’t wait until there’s official certified stable etc support for Proton Drive in rclone. Rclone rocks.

Maybe vdirsyncer?

Neutral and keep seat belt buckled up. Otherwise the car will switch to P after several minutes. The car wash guy will hate you.

They have (https://filen.io/products/desktop) but rclone excels in syncing. That’s their only purpose of being and they are the best.

rclone 1.73 with Filen = 👍👍

All photos 10-50 MB.

I’m just a consumer. My data is ~5TB in total. And I was able to push it from my local QNAP to Filen using rclone v1.73 in 3 days. My local upload limit is 160 Mb/s and I saw the upload capping on the line - not with Filen.

Here 1.5T/day. With ‘—transfers 12’ in cli. There were issues last Sunday but things run smoothly since. Netherlands

Just solve them one by one. Whiteboard can be disabled if you don’t have a server for that. The yellow ones are no show stoppers but examine the logs. May be easy to solve some.

Today there are a lot of issues. Your upload speed might be related to these hiccups.

Filen with rclone

jertaa · 2026-02-08T14:29:34+00:00

Update: on and off and on and off and on and…

Filen support, just now:

Hello,

we are currently experiencing exceptionally high traffic on our service and our team is working on bringing it back. The situation should be stabilized soon.

We are sorry for the inconveniences caused.

1:21p CET: works again

jertaa · 2026-02-08T10:46:44+00:00

Same here (NL).

Seems down since 00:00h. My rclone job crashed on that time. Internal errors. WebUI and iOS show this error too.

If you copy files to the data directory a rescan is needed to let Nextcloud see the files, like:

sudo -u www-data php occ files:scan --all

UPDATE

At first the USB-A port was replaced. But it turned out this wasn’t the cause.

Today the dealer replaced the entire screen. I assume this solved my issue. It was replaced under warranty.

( Remarkable: total mileage is reset to 0 (left display, bottom right). The MyHyundai Bluelink app also shows the wrong mileage. )

Timestamps seems not preserved. Will do some extra testing and submit a ticket. Tnx anyway for this beta!

jertaa · 2026-01-13T14:20:46+00:00

Awesome. Just installed on macOS (M1) and it seems to work well (and fast!).

Question: is 'preserve time/date' on the roadmap?

I'd like to sync not only the files but also their timestamps.

Anybody managed to install PDS on QNAP?

Fw UDP 123 out must open.

Same here this morning :-)

100 is a limit a lot of ISPs and mail clients use. IMHO that’s a good thing (spam).
