Moja iskustva su drugacija i ja mogu samo da vam zavidim
Kada sam po forumima trazio pomoc i uzrok problema svi su mi rekli da TM nije oficijalno podrzan na mrezne destinacije. Sam Apple ne preporuca da se TM backup usmjerava na Synology NAS.
Sada cu pokusati neki dock sa integriranim SSD diskom u kojeg cu ustekati monitor, nesto slicno kao Smayoo sto radi. Pa cu probati tako.
Meni je jako bitno da imam TM. Cisto u slucaju da mi u pola radnog vremena umre moj Mac, mogu uzeti neki drugi i klonirati identican setup.
Pitao sam evo i Perplexity sta misli
Apple's Time Machine is not officially supported for use with Synology NAS devices. While users have reported varying degrees of success in using Time Machine with Synology, the experience can be inconsistent and problematic.
Reliability Issues:
Many users have experienced issues where Time Machine backups fail or stop unexpectedly when using Synology NAS. Some attribute this to the protocol used, suggesting that switching from SMB to AFP improves reliability14.
Mixed Feedback:
Some users report that Time Machine works well with Synology, especially when configured correctly, such as ensuring each Mac has its own user account and quota set on the NAS23. However, others have noted significant problems, particularly after macOS updates, requiring them to restart backups entirely.
Technical Challenges:
Users have faced challenges related to the NAS waking up from hibernation and connectivity issues over Wi-Fi, which can interrupt the backup process.
Official Stance
Apple does not promote the use of Time Machine with third-party NAS devices like Synology. Their official guidance primarily supports local backups using USB or Thunderbolt drives. However, Synology provides documentation on how to set up Time Machine with their devices, indicating that while it can work, it is not guaranteed to be reliable.
Conclusion
While many users successfully back up their Macs to Synology NAS devices using Time Machine, the lack of official support from Apple means that users may encounter issues that are not easily resolved. For critical data backup needs, it is advisable to consider alternative solutions or additional backup methods alongside Time Machine.
