Do you want to use Synology’s Hyper Backup package to its full potential without paying for any external backup Cloud services? Do you want to keep your backed up data away from prying eyes in complete autonomy? If the answer is yes, then you have come to the right place at the right time. To do this you will need two Synology NAS devices: one for Hyper Backup and one for Hyper Backup Vault. Basically you will be installing the Hyper Backup package on one NAS and the Hyper Backup Vault package on the other NAS. The Synology NAS with the Hyper Backup package will be where you will run the back up process, while the Synology NAS with the Hyper Backup Vault package will become the backup destination.
